my original redesign of the sign up sheets specified one experienced 
worker per station.  (this was not specified before and was the case in 
the ggf incident.)

novices are always at risk to stand in front of a car no matter what you 
tell them before hand.  so you need the eyes and experience of our 
veterans to keep an eye out for anyone that might be unknowingly 
increasing their risk.

it is more problematic having some very small run groups and some large 
ones, creating a worker shortage for some groups.  this used to be (and 
still should be) the chairs' responsibility to anticipate this need and 
move peoples work assignments around before its a problem.   

i know i should bring these concerns to the steering committee meeting 
and not just on the list.  ill try to show up at the next east bay 
meeting.
