Long ago I dug into the cross voting amongst the witnesses and voted accordingly. It became a quite difficult thing to resolve past two hops IIRC, and took the better part of a week, and digging into their past interactions, economic endeavors, and etc.

Many of the witnesses have moved on since then, and others have changed their strategies and no longer meet the standards I sought to meet, so I recently was happy to get a heads up from LZ for that reason. My attention has been elsewhere mostly of late, and hearing the learned opinions of them as have been affording Hive attention is welcomed by me, and few merit more personal respect for their stands on integrity, free speech, and plain old honor more than them IMHO.

Same goes for you, and I appreciate your call out to action.

Thanks!
