But just try writing Dave, is the owner of the entire system, as long as you don't disrespect him, I think it would be okay and he would put you on the list. i'm not a fan or a member of either group, I think the AC BR a bunch of whiners, and the NFB identified by being blind for me. But hey to each his own. I employ a couple of very hard-working nfb people, and hey that works for me.
