joan is right. this has turned into a one-sided, misinformed and one-way kiddie game of telephone that is only serving those who are spreading false or misleading information - by statement or innuendo. there is a lawsuit. there are two sides. there is no settlement at this time. the courts will make the decision as to who is right and who is wrong. what's going on here, on this list, is nothing more than a rapidly spreading cancer of words. cancers are very difficult to excise once present. perhaps a discussion of proper motion of the GSD would be more constructive. diane Diane Silver-Strasser Silstra German Shepherds _Skatiebug'z_ (http://skatiebugz.shutterfly.com/) The online store for everything German Shepherd and then some! _http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com_ (http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com/) Skater's Blog In a message dated 7/6/2010 8:18:53 A.M.

It's a one-sided pancake folks�. The back and forth on this list about the lawsuit is a waste of time, because sadly you are hearing only one side of the argument. The lawsuit will be settled in a court of law and any and all of our 'comments' won't alter that decision. Those people whom are being maligned are not on this list and do not have the opportunity to defend themselves. I tried to put out the other side of the pancake because I feel it's very unfair to be at the disadvantage of having no voice to respond to disparaging comments. As you can see my posts have been met swiftly with some very fervent resistance. I suggest if GSDCA members really want both sides of the pancake, contact those who are directly involved (or your current Board members) and ask them for the 'other' side. Then and only then can you honestly make up your mind as to what is fact and what is fiction. Then you WILL have both sides of the pancake.
