[ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Open letter to P. Cooke (who is not a List member)

It was my intention not to say any more regarding Ms. Cooke, but there are some 
things Evan says below that I do feel compelled to respond to:

1 - The issue is on the List because, instead of keeping her grievance private, 
Paula posted her false accusations about me to other lists.  Someone who is 
also a member of Showgsd-l responded, and crossposted the response, including 
Showgsd-l's address in her email.  

2 - A defense by those who know better to the unfounded attacks on my honesty 
and competence DO NOT put me in a bad position.  In fact, they clear the air of 
the lies, and I want to extend my thanks to all of those who have come forward, 
publicly and privately, to refute the claims.

3 - It is incorrect that "there are hard feelings between Margery and Paula".  
I have no feelings toward Paula whatsoever, don't know her, don't want to know 
her.  The hard feelings emanate completely from Paula, for the reasons I have 
already addressed, which have nothing to do with either the GSDCA or Rescue.  
It is also incorrect that "...they will work it out".  There is nothing to work 
out.  Lies are lies.

4 - As an Administrator of Showgsd-l, I will NOT involve myself in handling 
this matter.  Clearly that would be a conflict of interest. 

There is a great deal wrong with intentionally spreading malicious, untrue 
remarks.  It is unfortunate that that those got here, since they clearly belong 
only in private, if at all.  However, I did not put them here.

Regards,

Margery Golant

This  list is suppose to be about the GSD not mudslinging and even worse 
outright  fabrications. 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.
