Westcoast, I understand the concern I experienced the other board and do not want this board to generate into that. However, nothing in my post was insulting, negative or questionable. I  pointed out the day's events had unnerved me and asked for input from others so I could assess my relative position.

I will chalk it up to misunderstanding and a bad day. I would also say  I certainly understand your position in maintaining the integrity of the board. However, I hope that does mean that legitimate question/opinions are removed. After all a free exchange of ideas and discussion can only enhance the integrity of the board not the opposite.
