I don't know about everybody else, but I'm getting about 200 emails a day related to Mickaboo now. Trying to tell what I should read and what I will have to ignore is difficult. When the topic of an email completely changes, could everyone try to remember to change the title of the email. I know it's a pain in the... [insert appropriate part of anatomy here] ... but it would make all of our lives easier and make it less likely that we will miss an email we would like to have read. Nothing this media advisory group says is secret from our own people but I would prefer that it not be shared willy-nilly with the media or the outside world without Karen's agreement and a general consensus of this group. We created the group so everyone on our Discuss list wasn't getting inundated with ban email. Karen Watkins has been trying to recruit helpers on the Discuss list also. Please feel free to share whatever you think people might like to read. I'm barely able to keep up with my job, three grandchildren, and a hell of a lot of Mickaboo email these days. I'm not paying a lot of attention to who reads what. Thanks, Michelle On Wed, Jul 21, 2010 at 11:26 AM, Elizabeth Young wrote:

see highlighted point below. i think what Mike is saying is true for many.

i think the Mickaboo Admins team is waaay out front of the Mickaboo General Discussion group with who is saying what and why regarding the ban, etc. i'd bet there are quite a few of our Mickaboomers that don't support the ban (which is fine- free country) but think it's important that our best communication be to our own members. i think everything we share with press and blogs and such should be shared with the members first so they know where leadership is at and aren't learning about Mickaboo from outside.

is Jonathan's piece ready for sharing?

or ???

Maybe I am dense.

Feel free to just respond to me if you want but I really have no idea what you mean by they are what some of our detractors accuse of us of being.

Maybe we could check in to this organization in Concord when we need to turn birds away?

Avian Rescue Corporation (ARC) http://www.avianrescuecorp.org/

We already have. They are what some of our detractors accuse us of being.
