muhahahahaaa........
The problem here, why your issues are constantly ignored, is that the political power structure of the SVX World Network is located in the eastern part of the U.S. The perils and plight of those that live out west are largely ignored and we are left to fend for ourselves. All the big meets, all the "respected members", all the decisions, are made thousands of miles from us! We the people of the west must revolt! Revolution! Revolution!
The smiley means this is all a joke.
