I will now attempt to answer some of the questions put forth regarding the change of editors for the HPOCA magazine.  There has been a delay in responding to inquiries for a couple of reasons.  The first reason was to give Sherry time to receive her notification, and a chance to review it and respond if she wished to.  I have now received the confirmation back that she received the letter on Nov. 14.  The second reason was to allow a time for everyone to cool down a bit.  This change prompted many tempers to flare up, and this is a time for facts, not anger.  The reasons for the change in editors did NOT include the recent letter published in the magazine, or anything related to the restoration of Hart Parr # 3, or the trucking bill.  It is time for these wild accusations to stop.  Also, no one has said that she did not do a good job of producing a magazine.  An internet forum is not the place to discuss details of this action, but the members do deserve an explanation.  You must also remember that this is the same basic type of information that would be included in an employee personnel file, and I don&#039;t know of any employer who would post a personnel file on the internet.  The notification letter included 5 items related to responsibilities of professional conduct, listed as fiduciary responsibilities.  It also included 3 items related to performance of the contract, which were not met.  Also listed were 2 items that happened &amp;quot;after the fact&amp;quot;, which were intended to voice the board&#039;s dissatisfaction with items which happened after the termination of the contract, but were not considered in the termination.  I realize that many of you want more of an explanation, but that will have to follow in the proper forum, which is in the magazine.  The magazine is available to members only, and not open to public scrutiny, as is this forum.  Any of you are welcome to call or e-mail me with your questions, as always.  I will try to answer them as best I can.  As for now, I can only ask you to give us some time to make the rest of this known, and support the new editors while they try to work through this difficult time.  I firmly believe that you will be impressed with the new look of the magazine.  Terry.
