^^^^ No - while many forum members were
_quite POed_ at the loss (me included), that loss focused our anger and resolve to:
a) publish a book,
b) take out an
full-page ad in "Variety" which was unheard of at the time,
c) project and deliver Proulx's book and DVD campaign into local libraries all over the USA.
d) Schedule and attend many "Brokie" events like the ones in Chicago, Hollywood
e) Attend "Brokie" gatherings internationally.
f) Become friends with many members here
g) .... and many more.
Glancing back in the rear-view mirror is always just a glance. Whether we act on what is see is always forward.
