It's a good group, I just started enjoying the posts there myself. Happy it is being worked out.

You might query the group moderator. Just to find out. It might be a mistake, or the group moderator may run the group liek a little fiefdom and have their own agendas that doesn't really fit the stated purpose of the group. If that is the case, then someone may have saved you a lot of drama by booting you. I dont' know, but have been through some online dramas from other sites. It's all led me to believe that the internet although it can be entertaining is not really all that important in the larger scheme of things.

There's a sale on sunglasses? Where?

I checked the members and you are not a member and was gonna suggest you contact the host but it appears he noticed on his own.
