I'll not comment further on this thread. I spoke up because I'm tired of the bullying and the free pass given some to break the no personal attack rules and push people around who ask questions.

I listened to FRiva on the radio and it sounded like it was a good event and I'm glad those who attended had a great time. I don't begrudge anyone there that, including the Network.

The D.C. Chapter is honored to be voted Free Republic's chapter of the year by our fellow FReepers (not the Network--which we are not affiliated with, BTW.)

Angelwood and I had sent a message to be read at FRiva but apparently that didn't happen. Perhaps she can post it here.

The D.C. Chapter earned its way into the hearts of our fellow FReepers by being open, inclusive, friendly and honorable over the past four years in all that we have tried to do to further the cause of Free Republic. In all modesty, our record speaks for itself, but we couldn't have done it without the support of FReepers nationwide and for that we are grateful.

"...our record speaks for itself,"

Yes it does. You have my eternal gratitude for the tremedous job you folks have done. You set the example. I just wish the DC Chapter and the Network could bury the hatchet and start working together. You would bring A LOT to the table.

Is one of your chapter members planning a lawsuit against Jim Robinson, Free Republic, or any other FReepers?

The reason the message was not read was because I did not receive it in time to take it with me.
