So I have heard all the ruckuss from last nights "informal" meeting.........WOW!!!  Per one of your forthcoming board members, the reason they are pushing doing business with them via the internet, is simply the board them selves CAN NOT GET ALONG!!!!  Now I am back to, why would anyone ever employ a competitor in their own industry to regulate them?  The hate and discontent that was aggresivley present last evening in Newport News, is just one of many examples why this board needs to be disolved asap.  Give the ear marked money back to the Commonwealth to use for a more worthy cause, and send this board home.  It is my understanding the chairman in his own words never wanted this board or regulation (source: Mr Hodge's letter to Mr. Johnson regarding the great imposition this board has caused for him and it's other member, and why he will not step down).  However if this board continues to exist it clearly needs to be chaired by an impartial party such as the VA State Police or the DMV. 

In reference to my young dispatcher's previous comments, I appreciated his closing quote the most!  It is very true the three groups of people who will spend other peoples money: children, thieves, politicians, and all three need supervision.  As a result of this boards behavior, it is my opinion they qualify for all three children, thieves, and politicians!
