Thank you Peter for offering some basic facts and perspective.

One reason that I dislike social media is that it panders to rants and ill-informed criticism. Those that run the MSCC are volunteers and operate in a changing world where 'entertain me' demands and expectations are high, regulation including health & safety, financial and liabilty is only increasing and demands for volunteers time outstrips availability.

I for one have the greatest of sympathy for them.

What was it that John Kennedy said? Something along the lines of "Ask not what America can do for you but what can you do for America" I don't see many TM'ers stepping forward!
