 From a CAUT committee member that is old enough to be a grandfather,  
there has been no talk about grandfathering and it is my guess that  
there will not be any. This virtual grandpappy will oppose it should  
that come about; just don't think it will.

I suppose this could be taken as an insult to all our work but hey, I  
like to think I have thick skin. :-) After all, I did say in an  
earlier post to keep the debate going. Taking in all these positives  
and negatives is a learning process for the committee and worthwhile.  
I guess it just boggles the mind at times when some folks will shoot  
down an idea before it is even presented fully. All we are asking is  
a fair hearing when we present our proposals. If an open mind just is  
not in the cards until then well, we tried. Why is change so  
frightening and threatening? If our proposals can advance the  
profession and PTG what is wrong with that? I guess we will  
eventually see if we indeed had better things to do. Sorry, guess I'm  
feeling like a grumpy old virtual gramps tonight. It's late. :-)
