Tom, That was truly un-called-for. I don't care who you are or what you've done because nobody gets to treat volunteers the way you did above. You need to back off if you're not going to do anything helpful. If you were wondering how our community gets a reputation for repulsing outsiders, this is a classical example. I'd appreciate your making an argument, if you're going to, on the merits of the proposal at hand, rather than stooping to personal insult. You know better.
