 I will not fall to flaming you over this, I have every right in the world to 
question what   is going on with ABANA as I pay my dues and our board asked 
to be elected they were not conscripted. And I did indeed look up my facts 
but if specifics are not given then a certain amount of inference will be 
drawn by all. You just prefer to infer that everything is hunky-dory...good 
for you, that is your way this is mine.
