" Nylxs had vision. Ruben founded it, he developed it. It continued its
" vision and many people joined. Great work was started. After more growth
" and people, the group wanted to move to a more democratic power
" distribution. In the beginning, Ruben's primary control was a good thing
" to guide the group until more support could be brought in. But Ruben
" would not let his child grow, not let it leave his nest. When there was
" finally an election, the leadership was in place, but in name only.
" Ruben put himself in the shadows but always was waiting to pull the
" support in the house of cards. When poeple expressed the idea of 'image
" control', to suggest that the organization's image was not just Ruben's
" to control, he didn't like it. People like Selsko started to do great
" work. Ruben setting up the association with King Games was great. But
" when when someone ask about the control of the 'main' asset of the
" organizaion that was always in his control, Ruben decided it was the
" last straw. He want is kid to be locked-up like Stephen Kings 'Carrie'.
" So he stripped a growing organizaion of great, dedicated people who want
" to do great things. And in its wake, he was his baby back.
" I say move on. Take those ideas and your hard work and make a better,
" more democratic organizaion. You know what to do. Be do'ers.
