who are the ''bashers'' your are reffering to ? who are you implying by your broad sweeping statement ? Be specific please and use names and IDENTIFY who exactly you are referring to. For the matter of clarity. We wouldn't want any of the ''non-bashers'' being labelled as 'bashers' now would we ?
Do you see/understand the problem ? How would you feel if someone made public comments about you personally ?? Maybe you wouldn't be bothered, that is your choice.
Have you read all of the 22 pages ? have you read all of the other posts/information ? if so do you actually understand what it is that has caused 22 pages and other posts to be written about this whole DEBATE.
Do you think people just keep their mouths shut and not voice an opinion ? should people be afraid to disagree with anyone about anything ?
The facts are simple. We are dealing with facts.

Again, broad sweeping statements without specifics and nailing down facts. please be specific and name names as to whom you are implicating in your comments.
Baseless attacks ? Predisposed agendas ? Personality conflicts ? Nay sayers ? who are these people you are implicating ? for the sake of clarity and lack of confusion it would be helpful if you were more exact in your statements. We wouldn't want innocent people getting negative presentation on something they had no involvement with.
No involvement. That's right. It was all done on the QT, secret. We can even prove this from previous discussions had on this board. AAWA was in the planning stage for a long time, it didn't arrive overnight. This whole debacle is nothing short of the fault of the person in charge of what has now become a fiasco. We didn't make it the fiasco it is. AAWA did that all by itself. AAWA didn't ask for any input from anyone publicly on this site.
Why not ? that is their perogative, they didn't have to, for whatever reasons they didn't is understandable. But as you say there are many briliant minds here with a wealth of experience.
This is not playing the blame game. This is not 'bashing' the AAWA board members personally. They are all amazing people who deserve our utmost respect for the work that they do.
What made things worse was how it as all been handled. AAWA'a own fault. For me, reading that (bullsht) statement on AAWA made me skin crawl. It was so like WT speak. and tarred us all with the same brush. Sorry I won't have that. So whoever penned that statement and then allowed it to go public has no one to blame but themselves. Sorry but that is life. You are responsible for your own actions, if you do wrong, then you have to make effort to put things right.
For me this is the crux of the matter. THINGS were done, actions that caused problems. THINGS were said that caused problems. STATEMENTS were made.
If things had been dealt with in a more diplomatic fashion, I don't think we would be where we are now.
Is that our fault ? NO
