Danny; My post was intended to be educational and informative in response to questions asked on this message board. If you don't want folks to respond to your posts in a gentlemanly informative fashion ... the best way to discourage those who have been there, done that, from answering legitimate questions posed is to respond the way you have.

Obviously, you have absolutely no clue as to how much dedicated work and time that is put in on the part of a Convention Chairman and his volunteer committees it takes to put on an annual convention the size of the club's annual show in Las Vegas on behalf of ALL club members .... but I for one, will not allow your outrageous opinions to go unchallenged.

Yes "Danny"; you (and others) have the right to post to this bulletin board using only a first name ... no offense intended; but there are many who will not accept what amounts to annonymous posts as being credible if the true identity of the poster is being concealed.

Why use only a first name at all? You might as well make your post under your name as "X" if you don't want your identity to be known.
