Geez Richard you sound a little stressed out. Clearly your thoughts are not unfounded but I'm not sure the club or any of it's members are not responsible for your enjoyment or participation or lack there of in the club. I find this BB to be merely a source of entertainment and info. I have made some great connections and even a few friends via the club and I never asked myself "what did I get", I never really wanted anything except to be involved with people who share my same interests, Eric
