I totally agree with you. I never read what Barbara has to say anymore 
it is an utter waste of time, also nothing new.. Yes I also wish they 
would spend more time volunteering...  Do something constructive with 
your time instead of ranting and raving repeatedly.....

>   why not go spend 4 hours volunteering in a position
