[OANDP-L] ACA Mission Statement

[Tony Barr]

Your issues are old ones that have been beat to death and tend to divide unity.
My e-mail address is foundation at t-barr.com

I had hoped you were more diplomatic by reading less recent e-mauls!
Take it private or take it to OANDP-L, whereyou can face your enemy, get it George!?
