Kelly, Very well said, I couldn't have said it better! Thank you! I also will not respond to any of this latest mess, it's not worth my time, or the stress. TOO MANY are at fault here, and no one can stop them! Let's all try to forget this mess and get back to what we're here for-support!

going to Germany or people that couldn't afford to go, it was a couple that over-did the praise. I am glad they feel they are adhesion-free and it is good
to post that they are but they didn't do it in a very good way. I know for a
fact that it is how this all started. Because that is when I started getting private e-mails about how these ladies were turning everything up-side down.
