Don Elliott's good works, sense of humor and his defense of you as not being a racist has nothing to do with his comments about health care refom or his past performance on the ICA/EI board. Good guys can and do screwup from time to time. When thay do, they need to be held accountable.

Marshall Jones pissed me off a time or two. Never the less, I always appreciate is wisdom and his contributions to this listserv.

  Ok, here are my three good reasons why Don Elliott is a Great Human Being! 


  1)    Always steps up to the plate when you need help: he was President of the ICA International Board when I was the Secretary General- came to every Board meeting and Conference during his four years tenure. When we needed people to recruit the ICA International 2000 Denver Conference, Don took off for a month to visit every ICA in Latin America. After the Denver Conference was over, Don spent another three weeks doing Africa ICAs follow-ups where we discovered up close the HIV pandemic. As a Rotarian, he is still involved in supporting ICA Zimbabwe’s fight against AIDS.




  2)    Has a great sense of humor- ask him about the India Lion Killer. Nobody with such a sense of humor can be that bad! Don’s humor is what made it possible for him to be around ICA for 35 years.




  3)    And most important: when somebody from the list serve implied that I was a racist Don got on the List serve and said, “No Way!”.



  NO WAY!
