Actually when you go to reply to a post---if you look to your right--above the smilies there is an abc and check mark---you can spell check before sending..

vette8t7, thank you for your i/p to this discussion. I think it has provided a clear alternative to the original post.

I'm sure that all of us, at one time or another, have felt that we were treated unfairly. Whether we actually were or not is another matter entirely.

In this case, none of us here will ever know what really transpired. After all, we have two conflicting stories. But the fact that there ARE two stories probably means that there was a misunderstanding on the part of some of the participants and it means that perhaps Ecklers and the Titusville Corvette Club aren't nearly as short-sighted and uncaring as originally thought.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to the Forum. It was greatly appreciated.

Jack

Umm.. In this instance I would think what ever is needed.... I guess you deal with everything in black and white, so next time you get pulled over for speeding you don't say a word??? Or in your entire life a rule has never been bent for you... I guess you're just perfect.. please....

That being said, why is it because a company is a Forum Supporting Vendor that they need to given "slack".. Ummm I know I don't really care if they support us or not... I'm fine supporting it without them... And for the Ecklers manager who knows so much and knows Mike Yeager, who really cares if he doesn't know how to treat people... Also if Ecklers wants to, they can jump in here anytime.. I'm pretty sure they have a computer and someone who knows how to use it...

So, in the end Ecklers is good for apparel and that's about it... They lost their edge a long long time ago..

Dude, at some point the ship has to sail, you know. If I show up tomorrow should the NYC marathon organizers let me run? Using your logic they should. Does that make sense?
