"I'll tell you what, Archie... if you can convince the BOD that club members and non-club members do not need to be educated regarding the slabbing issue via the CCGTCC... I will say no more."... John Benedict

I'm merely stating my opinion(s) on this message board, just like everyone else has done, John, and I understand completely that there are those who disagree.

You and I (and 99% of the readers of this thread) have been educated and re-educated ad infinitum on this subject. Some folks; members and NON-club members alike (it seems to me) just like to play word games on this (and other) issues. I sometimes think it might be more productive for some of them if they simply purchased a good Crossword Puzzle book to occupy their spare time in my humble opinion.

No John; it's not up to ME to convince the BOD ... it's up those CLUB MEMBERS who disagree with the BOD to do that. The BOD works on behalf of the entire membership ... not for those who are not members.

What a unique concept ... huh???
