    I think WhereRWe and Dubord are the ones that need to work this out. An apology is a wonderful thing. Most of the time it clears the air and life can go on. There are times even when an apology can be given even when and if you think you did nothing wrong.

    I don't think there should be any posting along the lines of what someone else thinks about this whole thing. What is to be gained by that?

    It sure sounds to me like we are playing defense rather than trying to move on.

    Just my two cents worth.
    I'd really rather not cache, but I am helpless in the grip of my compulsion!

    Well, folks, that was me. I just read the exchange of PM's that went back and forth and can assure everyone that this was not a matter between the Advisory Board and a member, and I do not believe anyone has to step down from the board. Sudonim did a great job (not surprisingly) a few posts back describing what can happen when two people get into an exchange of opinions in a forum or through PM's rather than face to face. One took offense at something posted, the other took offense at the reply and the race was on. But let us all remember that nobody ever, ever wins in a p...ing contest. Unfortunately, one of the parties has left this group over it but, like Andy, I truly respect his decision to do so. (pssst...I still hope he comes back).
    So, everyone, if I could have any wish today it would be that we move on to some other "hot topic" and leave this one behind. I think I'll go place a new cache. That always makes me feel good. Have a good week....!

    I agree with Gob-ler, and knowing he's been there before himself makes it worth more than two cents.

    This should be worked out between the parties involved. Any persons not involved do not know the entire story and should be careful passing judgment. As in most arguments, most likely both parties bear some of the burden of blame.

    The details of the confrontation have little to do with the subject of this thread and the upcoming poll. We should instead keep to productive discussion concerning that topic.

    Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.

    The poll voting is from Monday November 10th to Nov. 25th. We don't have any "I voted today" stickers though...

    I wonder if all the money spent on advertising had instead been spent on buying everyone a cup of coffee ...what would the outcome have been.
