The life of the board is shared knowledge and a common experience. Anything that undermines that process - no matter how well intended - damages the board, IMHO.

Joann - good post. This is exactly my take, and I believe many veterans are shaking their heads in agreement as well. Is the board damaged? I believe so. Beyond repair? Time will tell.
