    <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Dear Amrita, <br>
      It seems that many of the decisions are not taken because ISOC
      wanted to take them, but because it had to. Andrew has said
      several times that he had to take them, regardless of his personal
      feelings or friendships. <br>
      Perhaps the chapters don't quite understand the reasoning, and
      maybe this is what needs to get some better explanations?<br>

          The board is my boss.  They can fire me, and they can direct
          me not to do things, just like any boss can.  If, however, you
          are in a situation where the board is effectively telling the
          CEO what to do as part of his/her duties, then you have a
          broken arrangement.  There's a reason we separate board issues
          from staff issues, and it is precisely so that the board is
          not trying to do (as a collective) what is better handled by a
          single individual who can delegate the operational
          responsibility.<br>
