[quote="marknibb"]Joe, you may be right. And that may have been true
before the election, but that is not how the voters viewed it. Also,
if this is a frame, then giving up plays into the hands of those who
would continue to attack the federation as they have in the past.

I can assure you that for the most, the call for the recall against SS
was not for political grandstanding. The people that I know who were
a part of it, believed strongly that SS would and did harm the USCF.[/

But your people were in the minority. The pages on my website that you
have failed to specify thus far that you find objectionable have been
up since at least 1998, because I have made very few changes to my
website since then. everybody knew about them and a strong campaign
was conducted against me about them especially by Bill Brock.

Nevertheless, the votes were counted and I was elected. Then your
group tried to overturn the election results through a recall petition
which proved unsuccessful.

The new situation is that Paul Truong was elected after impersonating
other people, primarily Sam Sloan but others were impersonated and
attacked as well. The voters did not know about this. Had they known,
Truong would not have been elected. Therefore, both a lawsuit and a
recall petition are a ligitimate means to remove Mr. Truong from the
board.
