Two of Dave Israel's Cronies have responded. They, following the lead of the UCO Wizard are speaking of their imaginary wishful success attempting to bankrupting Century Village with their promoting of the dreamlike effort to Wi-Fi the whole CV campus.
Ignoring the fact that the Finance Committee and the Operations have turn down HIS Wi-Fi initiative he is moving ahead full steam. Ignoring the facts that not a few of the Associations are already operating successfully and happily with the smaller and cheaper Wi-Fi. Israel and his cronies speak as if there is no Opposition to their plans. They live in La-La Land.
Of course they state the obvious, only the Delegate Assembly can reinstate the Davis Israel's nonsensical Wi-Fi initiative.
His highness has been reduced to name calling. He is calling it No-Fi. The fact is this is the Wi-Fi of the future. And although we are Malcontent, we are firstly The Opposition.(not loyal opposition). We line up behind Patrick Henry, John Hobhouse, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Brig. Gen. McAuliff.(Nuts)
He can talk the talk about Wi-Fi and signal attenuation and Village wide coverage. Why is any of this a problem?
Band -width, if needed can be purchased. He sincerely doubts that Comcast will guarantee the necessary band width, he has been wrong before and will be again. Remember his claim that Comcast was a poor choice for Big time Wi-Fi? Remember his claim that the that this idea of his is the greatest thing since white bread. And we are moving ahead full steam.
What I don't understand is if his hand picked committees won't go along with him why should the Delegates?
So we will see what the Delegates have to say.
Are we going to see the price for Israel's folly before the delegates are asked to vote?
The following are Remarks by PICruise
Hopefully going full steam ahead. A few buildings seem to think they can do better on their own (where have we heard that one before), but Dave seems fully ready to fight it through for the betterment of ALL CV.
It will require a Delegate Assembly vote to re-insert the Wi-Fi funding, which in the draft Budget has been transferred to the General Reserves line.
If the Delegates reaffirm their commitment to Village wide Wi-Fi,
it will go forward. We are expecting vendor bids on August 1, 2014.
The No-Fi being pushed by the Malcontents, has real technical problems; and will not provide coverage throughout our CV Campus.
It will provide some limited LAN (Local Area Network) coverage within apartments, but signal attenuation will be problematic, especially when multiple users start streaming radio, smart TV, HULU, Netflix, ROKU boxes...Etc.
I sincerely doubt that Comcast management will warrantee high signal strength and throughput using one digital gateway to power multi-unit concrete block and steel structures.
What Comcast is doing is pulling a wire to a demarc and saying, Ok! it's up to you as to how you distribute signal, and solve the connectivity problem, with all sorts of devices.
If we get a vote of confidence from the Delegates to proceed with real Wi-Fi, it is "full speed ahead"
