My panites are not in a bunch. If I have made a mistake, I will readily admit it, as a good leader does, and would like to be told I have made an error of judgement so I can make sure to learn from my mistakes.

However, slandering someone on a public forum and not backing up those statements sets a poor example for the young people on this forum. I further state that Richard's lack of response indicates that he has no basis for his statements, as we all know his research abilities. If there were a case in which I set a poor example, he would surely be able to find the quote and present it for our viewing.

I take great pride in being a positive influence on the young people I come in contact with, and when someone questions my abilities in doing so, it concerns me a great deal.
