[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

Now I think it's time to cut out the subject of NFB Expulsion,
since most of us on th is echo are tired of hearing about this
problem.  We are entitled to our opinions (pr o or con) what ever
it may be.  This is a democratic society and each and everyone of
 us has a right to express our opinions, even though they may not
 be the same as your s.  What ever I share are my ouw opinions and
not the opinion of the American Council
 of the Blind (ACB).  I will agree with you that the NFB and ACB do
 have different vi ews of issues, BUT we all are here to make life
better for the blind and visually imp ared.  Now and old saying
comes to mind, "If it's too hot in the Kitchen, then you be tter
get out.  In other words if you can't take the heat from us, get
off the board.
