Dear Richard,
I again appreciate your input, some of the staff went a completely wrong approach here.
I will see how soon changes can be made to reflect your concerns.
Damage has already been done to the association, via web comments, and people leaving a damaging effect across the web. This is sad because I as well as the other co-founders worked very hard at producing a club that would fit a lot of needs.
Don't know how all this went wrong, a good idea that went sour very fast through mis communication.
Thank you for giving me a chance to legitimately speak my mind and thank your group for leaving civilized comments.
