Even more troubling if someone else stooped low enough to phony a copy up and send it to discredit him - with the mispelled signature as a deliberately planted red herring to make sure it would be "discovered" quickly. Besides the ridiculous idea that Carmen wouldn't know Lew's name by now, remember that he's spent years on the Board of the AKC where penalties are assessed monthly for forged signatures of all kinds, it's totally off base to think Carmen would send ANY document containing a forged signature himself - especially to the AKC. Faking a letter wouldn't be his style anyway. He's always stood for what he believed is right. The PAWS issue showed that he has the courage to stand alone if it comes down to it. I hope there are those on the Board and other club officers who aren't abandoning him. There are a lot of us who still support him and would object to having him removed. I suspect someone wants the GSDCA Delegate title badly enough that he or she (and his or her supporters) are willing to do anything, including breaking the law and destroying Carmen's reputation, to get it. That's not the kind of representative I'd want. Janice Buchanan member of the GSDCA since 1990 In a message dated 3/8/2007 8:23:46 P.M.

Kathy No. I am sure he knows exactly how to spell "Lew". I am also aware he was told not to send the letter. Even more troubling. Randy C.
