Thank you for your observations. Personally, I don't think Alderman Clemons was particularly intimidated, as
I have never known him to be so. | think he would likely have raised some objection to me personally, or, if
history is ANY indicator, more likely on the spot, if that were the case. I think based on your commitment to
validating every article regarding the pandemic, you have no doubt reviewed Masons Manual For Legislative
Procedure, in order to fully discern the meeting you attended, and so are no doubt familiar with the concept of
personal priviliege. Alderman Clemons has a fairly significant history as a legislator, and I am of the opinion
he is familiar with this as well. I am confident he can navigate a meeting very effectively with his knowledge
of such procedures and experience in doing so.
For my part, despite the evident weightiness you place upon your opinions, and the sincere gratitude I have for
your estimation of quality,
I am afraid [ can't agree that I have raised any particularly high expectations regarding my sense of humor.
Perhaps some day, my time will come as a rising star on the comedic circuit, but my sense is that I am still
some ways away from such a career change, this, my humor may lack spice, but instead carries the soothing
consistency of peanut butter. I suspect that if Alderman Clemons were so offended, I am fairly certain he
would let that be known as well.
Now as a member of the public, I hope it is clear that you are always welcome to share your impressions, and
I am sure they will be given the fll weight of consideration that they merit. As aldermen we try to be
responsive to individuals indentified as our constituents. If you don't identify your address however, they aren't
added as an official communication, so if that was your intent, you may want to observe that piece of house
keeping. J would also include the full breadth and scope of the medical credentials, you have no doubt acquired
through your careful study, which could only further validate your assertions.
Personally, I think Alderman Lu's opinion was well stated, and I invite you to further research the board of
health that she referred to, as well as the humble credentials of it's members to better understand the context of
her suggestion, as she was describing their exact role and purpose per state statutes. I think it speaks highly of
her character that in the midst of a highly controversial and politically charged climate, she is willing to
acknowledge a desire for a qualified objective opinion, whatever it may be, in order to best represent the needs
of her constituents as an elected official.
Of course again, that is my opinion as one of her fellow Alderman, you are certainly welcome to a different
interpretation of how elected officials should evaluate their positions.
