The beginning of the end did in fact happen, but an immediately complaint (an advantage when you are on the board 24/7) and the mods had to put a brake on it.
The outing wasn't on long enough to take hold
"The outing" wasn't much of an outing since all it did was confirm that what I've posted about myself is the truth. Included was my name, address and phone #, my immediate families' names, a link to an out of date Google Earth image of my home, a link to my Facebook page. A link to a name search site (hope JPJ didn't pay for the information because it wasn't worth it), A link to my Linkedin page. A link to the website of the corporation I chair and a link to the written copy of testimony I gave to a legislative committee several years ago, which is a matter of public record.
I requested JPJ's post be taken down on principal. It is against board rules to share people's personal information and to harass and threaten other members. JPJ's post included an implied threat. See below.
