I don't think it was anyone that was at the meeting because he was a little unsure on the name, saying ". . . HAT stands for Houston Active Texans or something" and said that maybe someone from the group would call.
Jon can be a little tough on activists, especially if one calls just to promote the group. If Burl is a regular maybe he can introduce us gently.
I bet it was Illbay. He knows about the HAT chapter and seems to be a diagreeable type wanting to discredit FReepers for some reason or other.
