Not having the prevlidge of being a "plankowner" of X-mark I will stay out of whether there is an issue between the old and the new. I do not know his reason for leaving or if the is bad blood here.

I do wish to ask is it gentlemannly to rip at someone on a public forum?

Are we a communitty of friends or a clic?

If there are issues that those nubes of us aren't aware of (and don't want to be) than might those be better handled privately?

Can pay respects to a gentleman, what he has done and to what the meaning was behind the Saltire was or is this communitty different from what I thought it was?

All the heat over it does nothing but destroy what it stood for. Do we really what to force someone to give it up? What meaning would it have than?
