Well it may be that the money you're talking about wasn't considered a
trust.  Or that the Boards of the times since then may not have been
aware of such a deal.

You have had many opportunities to nominate for a board position (more
than one call in each of the last few years and at least once every
other year).  Each opportunity you chose to let others do the work of
governance.

I do know you have offered your services in other ways, so I'm not
trying to talk nasty, but you get the people you vote for, and they're
a subset of the people who're willing to do the job.  You can't
complain about competence levels if you've artificially limited the
pool of available resources.
