Yes, Will Saunders read a statement he had written at the invitation of Rosemary Bray McNatt. I have not seen a copy, and it's not the sort of thing that usually ends up in the board minutes (which you will eventually find <a href="http://www.uua.org/aboutus/governance/boardtrustees/minutes/index.shtml" rel="nofollow">here</a>). Trustee Linda Laskowski writes about the <a href="http://pcdtrustee.blogspot.com/2009/06/weird-beginning.html" rel="nofollow">"weirdness" at the board meeting</a> at her blog.

If they start doing that to Boston I might be out there live blogging some of these board meetings. (Anyone join me?) UUA really needs to open things up so we understand better what in the heck these folks are talking about. Congress broadcasts their hearings on the net. Why can't we? If people are broadcasting themselves live, we really should be... I asked a UU minister why both Hallaman and Morales spoke in such odd cryptic ways. I felt the outsider listening to this weird debate among insiders where all the issues where hidden and known to just a few. It starts weird and kept on going weird. The minister responded how candidates get locked into a language and for one institutional / cultural reason or another, and they can't get out of it. Getting transcripts, bloggers attending, live webcasts, a way to break-these-folks lose from their habits and let the wider UU world understand what they heck they're saying.
