Subject Author Date Click me for tea I'm so tired of this org being run by 50-70 year olds who can't even use technology correctly (24.206.76.49.netskope-rdns.com/24.206.76.49) 10:42:53 09/10/25 Wed You might want to consider the fact that the 50 - 70 year old people who run locals are the ones that have the time, energy, will and MONEY to actually produce a local competition. Seems to me that there aren't many 20 - 40 year olds who have the time, energy, will or MONEY to do the same.

(NT) -- But unlike the 50-70 year olds, they have a back bone to stand up to shady shit going on in VA., 11:03:09 09/10/25 Wed (24.206.76.49.netskope-rdns.com/24.206.76.49) They have all the means to do it but choose not to because who wants to be part of a dying organization? (NT) -- No name, 11:07:52 09/10/25 Wed (NoHost/181.214.131.164) I was 30 when I started out as a local director.... pregnant and had 2 small children. I've been an LD since.
