My response to Dave Olsen's "apology" and response to my post on his misinformation

Submitted by Peter Johnston on September 22, 2022 - 9:47pm

Dave Olsen's "apology" includes further wrong and misleading information.

He implies that Peter Luckham resigned as our LTC chair because of issues arising from some of Dave's astute questioning. In fact, Peter traded LTCs with another Executive Committee member because it seemed like the right thing for him to do, for both LTCs.
