Let me also point out what HDP/Don has pointed out on other local forum regarding my statement about the registration fee going to a "GOOD CAUSE".

He stated:

And this is regarding when I said

Let me be clear to my statement, "GOOD CAUSE". As there might be some mis-interpretation and wasting more of my time as some of you like to nick pick at what I might say..

When I say 'GOOD CAUSE', I see that there is NO big rotary gathering in this region where we, all generations of rotary cars could come together. So, hence when funds from the registration fee is used to organize this event, I see it as a "GOOD CAUSE" for the rotary community at hand.

I also think some ask such question because those of you think that I have some hidden agenda or something.. Maybe some of you think that I make a KILLING organizing this event.. If so, you really don't know what it takes and how much time it takes. Please ask my wife as she asks me every year, "Is it worth your time organizing and dealing with all these BS??". And this is also the reason, I debate about doing it every year..

So, Hopefully I'm clear about when I say "GOOD CAUSE"??? If you guys don't think so, please let me know.. Because I always thought I was doing something "GOOD" for the community and if I'm not, Hell, why the fuck am I wasting my time

Don, Why not ask me directly instead of "If an older retired couple was cruising through the mountains, saw all the nice cars and stopped to check them out, would you really ask them to leave? Just asking."...

as if you are testing me or somthing?? Don't you have my cell number??

Well, Just as I started this thread to make sure those who reads it and think it without registering to understand the importance and why, I also wanted to makes sure those who might mis-interpret when I say, "Good Cause" to be clarified. Hope you now understand my meaning of "Good Cause"?
