Sean,
Waiting for what ?
Permission to disclose or hide the truth ?
TEPaul & David Moriarty,
I don't want to speak for Ran, primarily because I already speak for CBM, SR and CB and I don't want the appearance of any further conflicts of interest.
Plus, there's only so much time in the day and I can only represent so many voices.
Having said that,
Ran doesn't want to get involved in these petty squabbles.
He doesn't want to be a referee or arbitor, nor should he.
He has a life, his time is important, he has a business, a family, hobbies and more important than that, he has friends like me to take advantage of him on the golf course.
Ran isn't going to sit around all day reviewing and editing posts and mediating disputes.
Leave the guy out of this.
TEPaul,
STOP WORRYING ABOUT OTHER ENTITIES !
Let them worry about themselves.
You can't act as their self appointed protector.
The time you spend worrying about and defending clubs could be better spent devoted to charities, like funding cancer research, diabetes awareness and a cure for Progeria.
I understand your passion for the game, architecture and historic clubs, but, they got along just fine without you for about a century and they'll get along without you for the next century, provided that the White House doesn't make them extinct
You're certainly entitled to challenge and refute any comments or opinions regarding those clubs, courses or memberships, but don't appoint yourself as their guardian.
You know that I agree with you on a lot of issues and that I also disagree with you on others.
I can say the same thing to David Moriarty. We agree on some things and we disagree on others.
Jim Sullivan and I don't agree on everything, but, on this topic, I think we agree,
Let's not send David and/or others on wild goose chases.
If you have some interesting information, post it.
If you don't, just say, "Trick or Treat" and lets get on with it.
