Either they will or they won`t. Unspoken commentaries (sp) are being developed, IMO. So far C6 is a "cold fish", ooopppsss see how easy it could get to become contentious, that is the opposite of the intent.

The intent is ONLY POSITIVE BY CHOICE, not forcing the issue, IMO.
Either you have it in your heart or not. Maybe others would rather stay focused on the usual TRIVIA and that is there prerogative.

But maybe it is moments like this, that define who we are as an individual, as a group as a Nation.

Moderators can help also, how about getting involved, stickys, posting in other sections. Any help would be great.

Thank you

I also posted a link to this thread in the South East Section of the Forum. There are a couple of very active North Carolina groups that post frequently there. I feel sure that some of them would be willing to help out.

Hats off to Les for bringing this to our attention.


Brett, you're a good man Sir, I wish I could drive down and join you guys.
