Will, have you considered the possibility that Phil shared the only
information he was able to at this time, and maybe there are a lot
of details and communications that are still being worked through
before any additional information can be made available? Maybe you
haven't considered the possibility that board members and other
volunteers have been taking many hours of their holiday weekend to
deal with this very issue in order to resolve it in a way that is
thorough, professional, includes proper communication between
various volunteers and staff (out of respect for each other), while
bringing clarity to an issue that is immersed with confusion
surrounding many details that you are lucky to not have to even know
about, let alone deal with. <br>
<br>
To imply to the hundreds of people on this list that you are all
being disregarded and blown off by PTG leadership is not only
complete nonsense, but it's disrespectful. Please show more respect
to those who serve the PTG as volunteers. They don't get paid money,
but if you can't find it within yourself to be grateful for their
efforts, please at least refrain from making obnoxious accusations
that you have no legitimate basis to make.<br>
<br>
Phil tried to share some news that he thought would be welcomed, and
to try and tell someone what's going on (without inventing details
out of speculation on matters not yet decided - which would be
irresponsible), and he gets blasted for not telling you what's going
on? That's insane. If he gave you money, would you post to the list
about how insulting the amount was?<br>
