I'm not saying you're lying - not at all. I simply think you were misinformed. Don't read more into this than is there. As I said before (both in public and in private), you've done a hell of a good job uniting the keeper community and rallying the troops to fight for the cause. That's for the record. What I request, though, is that EVERYONE (USARK and others) get the facts straight before sending out an authoritative e-mail to thousands of people. I don't think this is something you did maliciously. I think it was a mistake and an oversight. You're in a position of great power right now, Andrew. You're the "face of the people", so to speak. There's an old quote that comes to mind: "With great power comes great responsibility." Your words are the ones being listened to, so please, make them count.

I'll say it again, please don't take this the wrong way. I certainly don't think I could do the job you're doing. It's gotta be rough - us herpers are a motley group.

-Cole
