My opinion is that the HPOCA has done a very good job over the years. The organization is strong, the collection and restoration of Olivers is bigger than ever, and the winter/summer shows bring people together from all around the world. The magazine is getting better, and shows seem to bring in more people. It seems like this board as well as boards in the past have really lived up to their mission. Again, my opinion, the most negative thing about the organization right now is the negative post and continued rhetoric by a few of you guys here. It seems like nothing satisfies you guys and all you can be is negative. I wish there were by-laws to ban your negativity as conduct detrimental to the growth and spirit of the organization. Unlike many of you, the President has been very professional by not attacking peoples character, or personal attacks. And no, I'm not one of the in-crowd, nor have I ever met any of the board members personally. But I do respect their decisions and judgments in governing the HPOCA. Most of us like Olivers, Hart-Parr, and Cockshutts. Thats why we are in it.
