Greensboro City Council Resignations Welcome In Any Language

I would gladly accept resignations from any number of City of Greensboro council members in Klingon or any other language we can interpret including but not limited to Morse Code, Smoke Signals, Semaphore and the pounding of drums. From the Charlotte Observer:

" An Indian Trail councilman decided to boldly go where no politician has gone before – and tendered his resignation this week in the Klingon language.

Apparently David Waddell no longer wanted to live long and prosper on the board."

Seems Councilman Waddell was fighting Mecklinburg's elites despite the mixed metaphors of the Charlotte Observer:

"He expressed frustration with what he saw as runaway development in the town as well as concerns with how requests for public information were being handled. In November, the council tabled a plan to establish more fees for some public records and add more restrictions on how records could be viewed."

Sounds familier, doesn't it? As Facebook commenter, Ken Moser of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho said:

"Haha it's gone viral and David is winning."

The elites of Indian trail are screwed. I only regret it didn't happen in Greensboro.
