To Bill (Sargent). There are a few individuals in this club (and outside the club as well) that I don't particularly care for either ... and I'm sure that there are some who could care less about me ... but that is not going to make me throw in the towell and renounce my club membership... nor should it have any effect on those who may dislike me to renounce their membership.

One can not tell other club members (or non-members) who they can do business with because of their bad experiences with a particular individual. All one can do is to alert any shoddy business practices to the community and hope they take heed. A few of my club friends are still openly doing business with the non-member "chip repair shop guy", but I am not going to renounce my friendship with them over their "bad judgement" .

I hope that you will reconsider your club membership and renew your dues in a timely fashion. The hobby can use more supporters like yourself. You can do more good on the inside of CC & GTCC looking out ... then you can on the outside looking in.
