I also wondered if we in NW Region were being punished because Jeff Flint was involved in what some feel was our stupid mistake... even if it was caused by Jeff. He paid for his mistakes...NOW, get rid of the "punish bad Jeff" crap and get on with productive things.
From some of the executive's comments I've been reading you'd get the impression they were comanding officers or heads of large corporations; not leaders of a social organization.
We the Registry members are not your minions
I''ve seen too many Corvette clubs go down the tubes because political factions destroyed them. PLEASE, NOT HERE
Is all this petty bickering with things like... he said, or I said or rule 31 said, or it was not a formal event, published to all members, or will he attend. etc, going to be the demise of what we all wanted when we first started this group?
I wasn't invited to the outlawed gathering at Jeff's house...maybe because I never attended one in the past and he/they knew I wouldn't attend this one...who gives a sh3t. It's not a failure of any importance.

It's time we have an attitude adjustment by OUR all powerful executives.
Examine why we exist and what you as leaders should be doing to help the group vs. exerting your authority and tearing us apart.

Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy

Let's resolve to forget yesterday and move on as a group of friends helping one another.

If you don't want to be a team member/player then move on to another sport.

PLEASE, Enuff is Enuff

Wow man, you sure can sling some ****!

You accuse the board of a vendetta. You suggest the power of their (mighty?) positions has gone straight to their head. You call the NW gathering "outlawed" as if the Registry is attempting to strictly control every time two or more ZR-1's are parked in the same place.

Then you have the gall to say "Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy". Really? A lesson on tact after you make several slanderous accusations and present exactly zero facts?

Since you seem to have an even stronger, louder, and ruder opinion than Nick does (and he at least has some skin in the game), can you please quantify your opinion? (I'd ask you to present some facts to back up your opinion, but it seems fairly clear you haven't any)

As far as I can tell, you didn't go to the NW event, and know nothing about the planning of it, conversations between planners and the board, or even what happened at the event. How much money was spent per registry member at it? Do you know that?

Were you involved in the Jeff thing? You seem to think there's some resentment, etc. Were you there, do you have an insight into any of the discussions to see if there was something brewing? It seems pretty clear to me that if the majority of the board had it in for the guy, he'd be facing criminal charges instead of just being asked to step down. That is, if he was even asked, maybe he volunteered? Since you have such a strong opinion, I assume you can tell us how it all went down.

How many of the board members have you met? Can you tell me of some times when you talked with one or more of them, and they exhibited an attitude of superiority, or of authority over you as a minion?

Please, please quantify this opinion you have. Or else please, please stop posting it over and over.

Lastly:

Please use a phrase like "Some of us Registry members" or "Me, as a registry member", because now you know there is at least one member you don't represent. Thanks.
