Calum et al,
I think the main concern here seems to be that the sending of this letter will
harm you, by affecting TLC's view of you/our AFOL community?
I, personally disagree with the tone, and therefore will not "sign" this
version.
However, I don't think the letter, even as it is, will have any adverse affects.
What could happen?
True, the arguing is a lot of wasted bandwidth both online and off, but it's not
that hard to ignore. We know this issue effects certain folks quite emotionally
-- that is quite evident. From my experience, telling someone to 'get over' an
emotional issue.. usually doesn't help... and seems to usually just make the
response even worse. Some of us need therapy [including me]. We need some time
and a venue for greiving the loss. Some folks need to greive more publicly than
others. Please let them.

finally contributed to the wasted bandwidth :-(
