[MR] the real petitions are now online

Greetings from Richard Fitzgilbert!

Certainly more of an oligarchy than an autocracy but sometimes it seems like
a true bureaucracy. :)

But in fact it's run just like thousands of other of like organizations.
There is a board of directors who selects corporate officers.  The corporate
officers run the organization.  The corporate officers appoint deputies to
help them run the organization.  If you don't like the way it's being done
ask the directors to get new officers.  If you don't like the way the
directors are selecting officers get new directors.  Of course you'll soon
realize that just like all organization like ours, the directors are a self
selecting group and the only thing that makes them pay attention to the rest
of us at all is their good will.

So it's not an autocracy, oligarchy, monarchy, or anything of the sort.
It's a corporation, heaven save us all.

Yours in Service to Atlantia,
Richard
