Well Danny,
At least my opinion is soundly based on parliamentary law. So much so, that a member of a society can be called to out of order for referring to another member by name, under parliamentary procedure. 
 I will not agree that persons are the same thing as issues. I have friends here who have never agreed with me on issues, and I have known them for longer than you have been on this earth. Just because we don&#039;t agree does not make me feel they are a bad person, as a matter of fact, I view it to the contrary, some of them would even split their stove wood with somebody in need. All it means is I don&#039;t agree with them on some or all issues.
You can take the easy way out if you want, but eventually everyone will disagree, and when someone disagrees with you, remember, they are no longer on a friendly basis with you. That is your concept, not mine!!! Eventually, the law of probability will show a negative effect on your ability to secure friends.
As far as HPOCA goes, why should it concern you? You have repeatedly made it very clear that you are getting out, so why deal with something that you will have no input in?
Take Care!!!
Andy
