Because some of the emails were instigated by me does not necessarily mean 
I published the site. Did you check who owns the domain? Assumptions like 
these get people into trouble fairly often if not careful.

You think so? You think the squirming and wriggling of UKPSA and NRA et al 
to positively avoid linking to other UK orgs is innocent?. A five minute 
job to do this - significantly more time and effort to think up excuses not 
to. And you have to admit - some excuses were classics. You may like to map 
the very simple and tangible question asked here so more complex and 
important ones in your own time.

Hmm - delusions of grandeur on this scale I certainly do not have.

Shooting Associations are not supposed to be some untouchable and 
unaccountable body existing in another dimention of space and time. They 
are supposed to belong to their members. I know BASC and NRA like to run 
themselves as if their membership does not matter but that isn't supposed 
to be how it works. Well done - maybe you _have_ seen the point of 
talesofwoe.org.uk.

So here is a question for you as in an individual (shooter?). Do you think 
the link matrix between UK shooting organizations should be complete?
