First I would say I agree been dressing for a long time I live far way from my closes Tri Ess meeting so I don't get to go often. When I first went it was packed (I should say that the internet was not up and running like it is today). Which brings me to my second point I wonder if we don't get the support we need here which helps us connect with people looking for the same thing.
On a side no I would like to thank all the people who run those organizations for giving up there time to help others.
