    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>
