I know nothing of the sort, Tone. Its not on the UAMCC board is it? I go to three forums and pop in on this one. I've not seen it though I know of its existence from a friend (a non UAMCC friend) Again, you are lumping me into having the same worry and mentality that other people seem to have about gossip and personal interference. Its not me, Tony. I don't how much clearer I can say that. I've heard a hundred things about people that would make the accused jump from this foot to that one trying to explain. Never once has any of that ever passed my lips. I've been on these forum seven+ years and can say confidently there is NO ONE that could stand up and contradict what I just wrote. I do not believe in gossip and rhetoric. I think its mean and its for the weak. No offense meant to anyone.
If twenty things make up who I am as both a person and business person, the UAMCC is number 20. Its an organization I belong to. That's it.
I helped do the grunt work to get it started.
The management of the organization does not consult me on anything.
They do not ask me to vote on anything.
I do not have a free lifetime membership. Though I think we do get some free time for our services. I did not pay this year to be a member.
I'm not a stockholder. I'm not a BOD member. Honestly, I don't even think I am a moderator on the forum anymore. The only difference between the UAMCC and any other organization I belong to is the fact that I know the guys on the current management team and they are all personal friends (some before the UAMCC, some after). I also believe in it and its goals.
That's it, Tony, David, or whoever may believe I have more invested in the org than that. I'm here as me.. just me.. opinionated for better or worse. I've already mentioned I will not explain anything further about the org. That's for the UAMCC board to be answered by the management.
The post is directed towards all who were involved in the decision to not censure Don publicly for a public disgrace he put out regarding a private matter.
If you weren't a part of it all you have to do is say so.
But if you are insinuating that it didn't happen just because you didn't see it or since you didn't physically see it, it must be gossip - I think you know better than that.
I'm certain someone has a screen shot of it. It's one thing for a group to deny phone or personal conversations, but it's a little harder to deny what's been in print. Thus, the limited engagement on the boards of Carlos and the TT. (except for Jeff)
The TT is aware of his posts. Whether you were or not.
