I remember you being labeled with the Clique and also Click tag at the outset of when I first heard about all this. I did not intend to malign you in any way. Until today, though, I have never heard any other name mentioned in connection with the Clique/Click. I now believe it is simply a short-hand way of saying that there are chip collectors who will not question their friends' actions and motives when they have been accused of wrongdoing. I don't think it really refers to any particular people, but simply this conduct.
