Thank you for sending me this list. I now know which of my friends I should pressure to end their participation.
I was there in Pittsboro Feed when Lyle was putting the pressure on Christine and David, it was sickening. Y’all are a little too overzealous in your pursuit of the program. You yourself talked me out of participation with how pushy you were being. It looks like that zeal is going to be what kills it. It also will probably kill the willingness of folks to work with you and Lyle in future endeavors.
I really hope this does not hurt the Chatham Marketplace, it would truly be a shame. My advise is to let the Plenty die, try to rebuild your reputation, learn from your failure and move on to a worthy endeavor that Pittsboro might be a little more receptive to.
