All good and well, but I rememeber also sitting at the library on Leroy
Street with everyone having a chance to have their input with Michael
acting as a Chair and about 20 people present after Jay threw a huff and
walked out, and there was a long civil discussion, a motion and a vote
to incorperate NYLUG and to create a charter. And all your guys did was
do the same thing that ole crazy Jay did, after a few weeks you threw a
temper tantrum and walked out, leaving nobody but Brian, Sunny, Peter, Rob, and
Brian and a Lawyer to make the charter.
So Sunny must have learned something that everyone else failed to learn,
which is not to run out the door in a huff.
There is no Coup at this point, Ron. YOU fucking HANDED NYLUG to them on a
silver platter, and let me down in a big way.
You should be ashamed, and I'm a total idiot and should have known
better. It is so much easier to piss on my leg on the hangout mailing
list then to do the real work that is necessary when handling
contentious political situations in an adult way. I've seen this act
out before and I have no idea why I thought that it would play out
better this time. I just thought 20 year of liing experience might make
people mature. But it is ture what they say, people don't change.
