Hi Jim,
I think you are taking artistic license in your interpretations of what I said.
My "very much focused on USA matters" is not much different to your "regulatory articles and advocacy efforts are USA-focused" .
My "Thus limiting its usefulness to those living outside N America" does not say or "infer" "that membership has no value for someone not living in the USA" - I used the word limiting, meaning of reduced or diminished value - this is undeniable.
I did not " admonishing folks" I "respectfully suggest"
I stand by my suggestion and would now go further and admonish those that post limited access articles/web connections/video, on any Forum is inconsiderate of the Forum members (who are not also members of the limited entity).
