I don't think the CDN Tour should be scrapped, but I think it should be expanded on
the page, so we know who actually has each box.  And I really think people should
GET OFF THEIR BUTTS and post in here when they get a box!  How hard is it to post a
short message, just a simple "I have box X, sorting it today/tomorrow", "I finished
with box X, shipping it tomorrow", "I shipped box X", or even "I got box X
yesterday, sorted, added, and shipped it off today"?

UPDATES, people, UPDATES.

yeah, I was over reacting, but I am with Tom that there should be some accountability and documentation of progress. Thanks Tom, you said it much better than I. -Phil (...) (27 years ago, 3-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)
