How did they know this until I pointed it out? This would point out a
massive contradiction in as much as you did not and do not know who 
the current membership of the AFFS is, indeed nobody does.

I am not part of the committee, I think this has been pointed out
already. You are also avoiding the question I asked, as much as you have
written here is plainly obvious.

I was just wondering if they would prove to be difficult to deal with
compared to you. As yet you have only acted in a manner that would
suggest you wish to carry out a witch hunt and are looking to find 
someone to blame about the failure of the AFFS and not ease the 
handover to the current membership of the AFFS. 

As it stands if you carry on like this I will not participate in
offering any more assistance to you. As it stands you have been 
informed that some of your questions can not and therefore will not be
answered, unfortunately It seems you are having trouble understanding 
this.

I would also like to point out that several other people have understood
what has happened to the AFFS and posted here saying as much. All I am 
asking is you moderate your attitude, if you don't then you will find 
restarting AFFS a much harder task than it already needs be. If you want
a statement from me saying why I am no longer paid up or on the commitee
then you will not get one as it involves a few personal issues which at
the time meant I could not carry on in the capacity that I was.

I am very happy to see something happen to what is left of the AFFS and
it does need fixing, just the methods for doing so would not be using a
hammer to crack a nut and trying to work in co-operation with getting 
a list of who the current membership is so that they can work between
themselves to resolve this.

Thanks
Adam
