It appears some things where said at the PM Assoc. that involved politics & stacking the deck in someone's favor to take a seat at the GL.
Our lodge has typed up letters urging all PM in our district to attend the next DLI in order to confront these under handed goings on.

I must say the Tuesday meeting was very impressive to see & HEAR, these are some very intelligent & well read Brothers who can think on their feet.
On a different note the Hearing Aids took a little getting used to but made communication a beautiful experiance, the WM decided since the Sr. Decon was absent would I fill the chair for that evening.
We did a Masonic Funeral that night as well & it really was amazing to watch, for the life of me I don't know how these guys keep it all straight in there heads, & say everything with such conviction.
The sad part was I knew this Brother from the range I'm a member at, Rest well Brother John, your steady hand & quick wit will be missed
