Hi Travis. I was in no way suggesting that the club SHOULD close, so my apologies if I was unclear in that. I am WORRIED that continued fractious and heated arguments will drastically change the nature of the club. Anyway, I just want to be part of a positive organization. I enjoy my hobby, but perhaps I'm not as passionate about it as many others. It's a part of my life, but it's not "my life" in total or even close to it, and maybe that's why others are much more vocal and persistent in their views.

You and I have never met, but I absolutely know who you are and from what I've seen from your posts and posts others have made to and about you, you're an icon and deserve all of our respect. You have mine and I hope to meet you one of these days.

Thanks for your words of concern and enjoy your weekend.
