Guys,

One of the things about the internet is that facial expressions or 
tones of voice do not make it across.  I am just checking email from 
home and do not see the D3 VP messages, except for Bryan's which was 
copied to my individual email address.  So, I am going to try and 
synthesize some notes based on phone calls I received.

As to any agenda - you are right - I have one:  It is to improve the 
District.  Voluntarily dragging my own name into such heated issues, 
giving amunition to national-smear-campaigns & other derogatory talk, 
is "clearly" not a course of action that leads to beating anyone or 
achieving really nice scores, so please drop this simpeton-conspiracy 
that "everything" thing I've said is just to beat Jason.

>From what I was told, and from reading Bryan's note, there is in fact 
some constructive points I can personally take away from this and use 
to better myself.  Thank you for that.  Anyone that knows me, knows 
that I look "in" before "out."

For as much as I can take away from this, it is also worth pointing out 
that when you bring up issues like: transparency, fairness, bias - some 
people react as if holy-water had been thrown on a vampire.  Those 
issues were also brought up in some letters sent regarding this 
appointment.  Therefore, if you read the letters, please be 
intellectually honest and recognize that a few others felt that same 
way, and no longer promote the idea that I am the only one.  These 
feelings span from north to south, east to west, plane to plane, group 
to group.

Someone mentioned my note read as a threat (regarding people spending 
their time other ways)????  I can't even respond to that.

Respectfully,
Jim W.

    Hello everyone,

    It looks like the annual etiquette reminder may be overdue.

    I am the current NSRCA list administrator and the rules I run the
    list by are simple:

    1. I own the mailing list server, but it is administered at the
    direction of the NSRCA leadership.

    2. The occasional teasing, banter, reasoned debate and "flame wars"
    are
     part of the exchange, but personal attacks are not appropriate and 
will
    not be tolerated.

     As far as I am concerned, the only valid reasons to take 
administrative
    action against a list user are continued and deliberate abuse of the
     service, the server or other list members.  While I have been 
hosting
    the list, it hasn't been necessary to remove anyone because of their
    behavior and I would very much like to keep it that way.

     Some recent posts have obviously been over the line on rule #2.  
Please
    refrain from further accusatory posts and take the D3 VP thread off
    list.

    Thank you, now raise your right hands and repeat:

    These are TOY airplanes, this is supposed to be FUN......

    Tom
