"THE CHEESY POLE"
I suggested the pole to mark, and he agree. We are not trying to shut 
down
the discussion, honestly, that was never my intention.  As organizers 
of
this event, we thought a pole was a good idea to get a more accurate 
count
of what our 69 or so members of the burning corn list are thinking as 
far as
camera presence/use.  Feel free to continue with the discussion.  I 
do see
the point you were making with the tree seed, I don't nessesarily 
agree with
it, but it is a valid point.  It is also a different angle on the 
discussion
at hand, and I am interested in what other think.
  Please reference "kinda missing the point (videotaping)"
One more thing, Put yourself in the position of the organizers for a 
moment.
we want to make this an enlightening experience for everyone.   We are
exploring how we can do that in a similiar manner as to how this 
discussion
is taking place.  I am feeling  that chilling effect you expressed
experiencing at the burn possibly creaping onto this very message 
board.
Discussion is nessesary, but at some point topics do come full circle.
   On a completely different note GX and I were discussing official
committees this evening.  perhaps we need a privacy-publicity 
committee, to
handle these issues in the future? My two cents: I was kind intrigued 
by the
idea that someone threw out of having a designated documentation area.
