I agree - but I also see it as a problem.  We should either:

1) Give the power back to fesco.  Board says, that's fesco's call, not mine.

or

2) Why bother having two elected committees?  Merge the Board and FESCo and
work on what the merged body should look like in terms of transparency,
composition, and delegation.

If we're going to let devaluation of fesco's power occur we should make that
decision consciously.
