I heard that the owner of the site (an individual who was not the moderator or admin of the site) pulled the plug voluntarily after ALPA National requested information about the site. No threats of legal action, just a request for information. Maybe the request was very intimidating, I don't know, but this was the explanation given to me.

Good luck with the new board. I didn't belong to the old one, and quite frankly, judging from the quality of the discourse here, I am not favorably inclined to sign up for the replacement board. No one here has provided much in the way of clarity about their beefs with the MEC. Ironically, you guys demanding transparency are pretty darn opaque yourselves when it comes to your allegations of malfeasance.

I will support the MEC until I become convinced they don't deserve my support. But what is NOT going to convince me that the bums need to go is a few guys on a message board who only succeed in making themselves look like nothing more than a fringe element of malcontents.
