Rich, you are more than welcome to have your opinion.....just as I am allowed to have mine.
If you please return to Doug's Original message at the top. You will see that his first line is "What changes if any would you like to see at the convention?"
All these post are simply suggestions.....at no time is the future banquet or convention being disrespected here.
Any remarks made about lack of clothing knowledge at past conventions - have NO bearing on the 2009 convention.
Hence there is no violation of the ACE pledge.
These ideas are to hopefully make future conventions better for everyone.
I will continue to back Brenda to the end on people taking some pride on how they dress for the banquet. If people can not understand this, than sadly maybe we should have a dress code.
But like I said these are suggestions only and never ment to place any negativity towards the 2009 convention....

And no one said "the dress code at the 2009 convention blows"...that would have violated the ACE pledge
