12.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"'>Well said Mike. I'm curious about
whether any member of the NSRCA has been contacted in any way by any candidate
running for an NSRCA office to encourage them to vote for them. These
positions are so thankless that if truth be known, the candidates would
probably encourage you to vote for the other guy. Speaking for myself, I
have NOT received any correspondence encouraging me to vote for any particular
person. If my experience is typical of other NSRCA members, then no harm,
no foul and we need to tally the votes at the end of the year and be done with
it. If Ron Van Putte were alive today, he would be asking the malcontents
if they wanted some cheese with their "whine". I believe that
the "silent majority" of the NSRCA members feel as you do on this
issue Mike so we need people like you to stay on the list to balance out all
the negativity.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

pitiful. Regardless the mistakes or the consequences, all of these board
members, volunteers, helpers,etc. typically do this at their expense of time,
money , effort, etc. they don’t have to help, they normally are just
giving back so that whatever activity can even exist. Do they make
mistakes, of course, lots of them, but they deserve consideration, real
respect, and kind responses. Otherwise they go away and the end result is
an even worse outcome. I have done my share of volunteering and
helping. I have received more than my share of unwarranted abuse from
those of differing opinions. It is offensive and oft times without
substantial cause. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
