- Hi Mike, I'm not going to quote any of the message that prompted me to
- send this message, for I am sincerely looking for information and not
- seeking to fan the flames of controversy. There have been in several
- messages allusions to the expulsion of affiliates from NFB, which I
- think everyone would agree is a grave action to take. Can you tell me
- how many affiliates have been expelled during NFB's history and the
- stated reasons for the expulsions? I should also like to hear from
- anyone who knows of similar expulsions from ACB and the reasons for
- same. If you would prefer not to reply to my query here I'd be happy to
- hear from you via the post office. My address is:

- I am genuinely trying to understand both organizations and to decide
- which, if either, should have my allegiance. I would like to know what
- would prompt any organization to expell entire affiliates, especially
- any organization which refers to itself as "like a family". A family
- does not readily oust its own members.
