You’d think an actual board member would know that the term is two words.

Also, I can see someone using the term “fellow” as a way to condescend the position.

My verdict, Matt is probably wrong. Allow the person write anonymously, it’s a word press blog for Christ’s sake. We all know thatany asshat with a computer can get one.

“You don’t thank a ‘fellow school board member’ unless you are also a member of the school board … or you have zero command of the English language.”

The thing is, Matt isn’t wrong. Given the choices, I would have lied and say I was one.

The other alternative is newark or union city’s school board? Or my original opinion- its a load of hooey.

I left a comment that may go unapproved, since my question about who the blogger is also has not appeared since I left it.

My comment:

Well, thank you for being so gracious to your readers! I, for one, will be moving on now. I’m not afraid to let people know who I am.

And, yes, it does matter. While it does not change what you have to say — who you are provides context that helps your readers decide how to interpret your opinions. For example, your “oh Centerville is so scary” comment in your post about Center Theater. Are you saying that as a member of the Centerville community or as someone living in the hills? Your comment that the Planning Commission did “a great job” in your post about the mansion in the hills — from what context is that opinion coming? It matters if you are personally connected to members of the Planning Commission or a fellow member of city government.

“I am amongst none of you and all of you”? Please. You’re not some kind of revolutionary on pirate radio.

I have heard Ohlone College Trustees refer to themselves as “school board members” on several occasions.
