I have been a member of this list for several years now and have the upmost respect for Margery Golant and her efforts on behalf of the GSD. My message to Ms Cooke is "PUT UP OR SHUT UP"!!! If she has any written proof of these allegations then she needs to bring them forward. Thumper's mother from Bambi said it best" IF YOU CAN'T SOMETHING NICE DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL" !!!!!! Ms cook has long ago lost any credibility she had(if she had any at all). THANK YOU MARGERGY FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK REGARDING THE GSD". I am not sure this belongs on the List for a number of reasons. First of all, Paula Cooke is not on the List, she has been removed. So, posting to the List about her is of no use. Second I did think we were not supposed to make personal attacks on the List. This also puts Margery in a difficult position when someone tries to praise her for her hard work, and includes a personal attack on another. I know Margery as an administrator will handle this, and I was surprised to see it. I know there are hard feelings between Margery and Paula, and I expect they will work it out, without using the List for attacks. If someone has something to say to either of them, it can be done directly, and need not be on this List. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
