Charles; Sometimes I feel like "I don't get it either" and I've been around a long time. <g> Not to brush you off, but I don't think that anyone could explain it to you in a single post on this bb. Speaking for myself only, I and others prefer that club matters be presented and discussed on the club's website message board, at CCGTCC.com and then contacts via email between warring parties could resolve some of the more personal/sensitive items. Others obviously feel differently and want to hash things out in front of the whole world and make a bigger deal out of them than there really is. I would be happy to answer any specific questions you may have, via email, as I don't want to upset this bb more than it already is. If someone with an opposing viewpoint wishes to offer the same invitation to you "for balance" I would hope they do so.
