    I beg forgiveness to being so uncouth to point out anything that may be in my imagination to be exclusionary, unfair, or plain rude.

    So, I am going to go find my flat cap and put my head back in the sand.

    AKG,

    I am very sorry that you seem to have not understood the intent of this thread and my posts. I have tried to be as clear as I could in expressing my admiration for the the Rotary Club's four way test. I read it and saw how it relates strongly to the culture we have at X Marks the Scot.

    I honestly feel that the test, and the ideals we have for our little corner of the Internet are good ones.

    All I was trying to say is that this was a a very good (though admittedly high) bar to strive for.

    Even if we sometimes fall short of our lofty goals (and because we are human we shall certainly do so) we are all the better and our community is all the better for the effort.

    If life is a journey and not a destination shouldn't we try to always try to put our best foot forward?

    Respectfully

    Jamie
