We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I know there are clips of open carrying on this site. I recall Melanie Hain's soccar game, a picture of a guy with Governor Stickland of OH, several of VCDL members in both social settings and testifying before governmental agencies. Perhaps when we go to Austin we should create a...
