Must have... the first one I saw was just complaints about getting
communication.

Well that won't work... I have tried that ;)

O.k. fair enough but one would have to ask what brought them on. Perhaps
he is just responding (albeit badly) to frustration that many people feel
trying to deal with the community. The difference is that some people just
sit there, some move on (like Napier), some put up with it, some explode.
All of these people have valid concerns that we probably need to address..

If 1 person is screaming... 100 people are upset and not saying anything.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
