Hearing over on Vista today

I went to the meeting today. I found the facility to be very poorly prepared for us even thou they had been warned. The microphones were set on whisper so even under the quietest conditions, I could only understand about 1/3 of what was said. I was very ashamed of the audience who did not seem capable of not talking. I felt like I was surrounded by 100 swarms of bees as people whispered to their friends. The doors were open to the lobby and the people out there were just carrying on conversations in regular voices in spite of being asked to please not talk. I sincerely hope that by the time we go back for the postponed meeting people will have learned that respect in a meeting entails no conversation and listening to what is being said.
