OMG, Here it is folks... Now I know for sure I am not nuts... the second pic down is what happened to me.. I just had to post this here because anybody else would not believe... over Rt 80 going to NYC outside of Clarion, PA. 9.11.82. 5:30am.

Hello Gerard,

I just logged on to find this email in my inbox and am a little perplexed as to why itwas sent to me in the first place. I know of the drama that has transpiredbetween this ning and the other and I have friends on both which is pretty muchwhat I have expressed. I also stated that I have made it a point to staycompletely out of the politics that are occurring.

I come to these nings for information and possibly a community of like minded individualsnot to be placed into the middle of drama that I had no hand in causing. SorryGerard but I feel it is completely without merit that I received this emailbecause at no point in time have I gone out of my way to recruit anyone foreither ning. I have strived hard to focus simply on what matters which is survivaland if you take the time to read through the post I have put up you will noticethat it keeps to that trend aside from minor deviance when I first started onthis ning.

I respect you and everyone involved in this ning but I also respect some of those involvedon the other ning. What I am having trouble reconciling is why is there adivide if it all comes down to expressing ones opinions, shouldn't all of ouropinions carry merit?

I find myself having to choose between this site and that one which is a true travestyseeing as how we all have the same goals which is simply to survive the earthchanges. I know you have your own personal feelings for handling matters theway you have and I hope you have taken the time to acknowledge that mud hasbeen slung both ways. That at times you may be of a different opinion thansomeone else but that does that take away from the contributions that they havemade.

Going through some of the post on this site I do not fail to see the aggression insome of the post regarding those on the other ning which I guess includes mefor some unbeknown reason. Simply because I wanted to stay in touch withfriends. I ask you now Gerard are you my friend, are you here to help mesurvive or at least attempt to prepare?

Because I see the email you sent more as a threat than as a warning. I see it as if Idon't do what I am being told I will be suspended. Which to me is cut off fromfriends that I have made. I don't know about you Gerard but if I told you thatI would cut you off from the friends that you have made would you react calmlyand simply move on or would you be offended that I would do such a thing for sosimple a matter as posting my opinion.

We are all striving to be STO are we not? Then where does it state that being serviceto other includes banishing of those who do not follow our precepts to the tee.Sorry Gerard but this is not how I was raised nor how I live my life. Thank youfor this ning and with a heavy heart I say goodbye. May this ning inspiremillions and my the light shine on you all.

Alex,

I ask you not to recruit for cheryl's ning. Not on a comment and not by sending out messages.

If you decide to to it anyway, i will have to suspend you from this ning.
