E-mail a depressed Veteran

I posted this in the O'Club, but some Con attendees and quite a few regular AH pilots don't read those boards.

Here is the thread:

Send Geoffrey Bird an e-mail

Weird.  This thread has been up since 9.00am my time (now 12.15pm) and the only person who has offered to send this man an e-mail to try and cheer him up is Tarmac.

I'm REALLY surprised.

But..continue your arguments on the merits of Festers Map...or who is stick stirring.

No need to help a veteran who paid his own way up to talk to all the Con attendees.

You should be a judge, Curval.  You do a good job of it.

Home for lunch and surfin the boards, I posted in the Oclub Curval.  And you will find most in here only care about themselves and not about the real world or others feelings.

Well, I apologise if I came across that way.  It was just frustrating being that the man took the time and spent the money to attend OUR Con and speak and only a few guys could spend 2 minutes sending a quick e-mail to help cheer him up.

Thanks AHGOD and Tarmac.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

Curv,

Sometimes folks do things and don't post about them.

Check with Mr. Bird and see how many have come in.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Curval,

I will surely send him a note when I get home from the office.

Curval,

The note has been sent.

One of the things that I mentioned in the note is that here in the States, we can hire a professional arbitrator that acts on our behalf when dealing with the insurance companies. They are "pitbulls". I speak from my experience with a house fire. Every penny spent was returned 10 fold.

You guys are great...just received an e-mail from Geoffrey's wife.

She is going to respond to everyone and is thrilled that you guys sent a note.

Many, many thanks

Curval
