Hello Pat.

I'm on the board and spoke to Mary Ann last night about this and she
asked me to respond. This was discussed at the beginning of the year
and it will be discussed again at the next board meeting which will be
next Tuesday. I too am for the idea but how to setup the infrastructure
to do so will have to be investigated, installed, tested and made
public. Also some rules for operating it would be required. Such rules
would be that one would not be able to attend if they are located within
a reasonable distance to a regular meeting.

Since you have mostly recovered, know the tools, and know how to run
a meeting is certainly a good thing. This will be kept in mind.
