Let me start out this email like FB would: FB and i are good friends and just because we don't agree on very much, he is always wrong and irrational ofcourse, he has a point. Another perspective that is food for thought is, for those people who it is a passion that passion come along with a lot of hard work,$$$ spent, miles drive and Sh**T picked up and sacrifices made. I can't comment on the Board, as i don't know a lot of these individuals well enough to comment nor do i profess to know all the complexities and issues they have to deal with. But there is one thing i do know, these people with the "passion" who are not "curing cancer" deserve to be respected by judges in the middle of the ring who are knowledgeable and have high integrity.
