Dan, this is strictly my opinion here.  I truely believe the goal should 
be getting open source and recycled computers into the hands that need them.  
I have never met you in the past so the only thing I have to go on is your 
recent emails which appear to indicate a very strong personal issue you 
have with something or someone.  You talk about 
the importance of not burning bridges, inside connections, and professionalism  but you 
seem to be portraying the exact opposite in your emails.  Am I the only 
one confused by these mixed signals?   The volunteer work people in HOSEF 
have done with such limited resources is amazing.  Anyone who discounts 
this either has a different agenda or has an extreme prejudice or stereotype 
based on a past experience beyond the other HOSEF members control and is 
exploiting that for personal gain.  
None of these is best for those who should benefit from projects of 
this nature and it is not fair to those that have a true desire to 
provide unselfish help.  I am sorry I feel that way but I truely 
can not assume anything else at this time.
