I believe you have misunderstood her point.  In order for the board, or
anyone, to be able to look at something and make a decision, it has to
be presented coherently and professionally, not as a rambling series of
emails coupled with demands that we support it.  Our time is limited,
and not every proposal that comes to us is equally coherent.
