There is absolutely no doubt that *people* - not just one person - on this list have behaved abusively to each other or even to entire classes of people. I have offered some of them this advice: "When you are in a fight with an idiot, nobody can tell which person the idiot is." And I have suggested that they take the high road next time.
About all we can do is go forward with better behavior. Endless hashing out of this will not help when, as far as I can tell, none of the parties look that good if you go over their past utterances. Hey, I've been there too.
Thanks

Was it because of your "huckster" comment?
I imagine the moderators (Mr. Stoetzer? Mr. Bankston?),have already applied the Acceptable Use Policy and AMSAT Ambassador Code of Conduct to Clint Bradford for making accusations against two AMSAT members on that same thread without providing evidence.

I have been informed I'm on moderated status for a "personal attack" so it will be interesting to see if this gets through. I feel I just spoke the known truth but the moderator disagrees so I will play by his rules. At any rate, this bb has been full of "personal attacks" lately both outright and veiled and unfortunately I see it continues with sniping and snide remarks. It's already established that I'm not currently a member of AMSAT and have my reasons why, but I would like to be a member again if I see positive change. You can freely disregard my opinion if you like but I implore all of you to cast your votes wisely and not be influenced by the decidedly personal vendettas of a few here. AMSAT is stagnant and needs fresh direction. Many are like me "on the outside looking in" and very interested to see where you choose to take the future of this organization. Thanks for your time.
