Hey, Geoff,
I've been meaning to say this for a while, and this is probably an opportune time to do so.
You bring a lot of relevant information to the table, and it is not just about falconry. ...

Hey, Geoff,
I've been meaning to say this for a while, and this is probably an opportune time to do so.
You bring a lot of relevant information to the table, and it is not just about falconry. ...
Ron, I just wanted to tell you (and others) that this statement I made was erroneous--social media (for better or worse) does define us. But there are numerous falconers, many of whom have been...
Ron,
Social media does not define us and, believe me, falconers will definitely circle the wagons if push comes to shove, just like we did during in the aftermath of Operation Falcon. However, I...
As you may recall, I was hoping that we would define what NAFA has accomplished over the years (which some of us tried to do) and see if any of NAFA's accomplishments conflicted with these...
Damn, Geoff, you said in your previous post that you were not going to take this discussion any further. I'm disappointed :-(

Ron,
Trust me, I know all about getting people to work together that have different opinions (some strong), and let us not forget the part that personalities and egos play in the grand scheme of...
Well, good, then I can have the last say. These damn skunks anyway.
Whether you mentioned Brian's name or not, you drug him through the mud. It isn't as if many of us didn't know who you were...
Now, Geoff, you know me well enough to have fully realized that when you made this post, you were going to get a response-in-kind; however, because Dan did not instigate this response, I won't...
Hey, Paul, you are certainly not boring me, for one. I appreciate you taking the time to share your insights based upon first-hand experience at the helm. And, I totally agree with your comments...
John,
I have been thinking more about your above statement regarding NAFA, and would like to follow-up on it.
One of the main things you touched upon, even though you didn’t say it, was...
Hey, Paul,
In your post that started this thread you asked us what we thought, which some of us have responded to. What do you think?
Bill Boni
Well, I certainly would not want you to say the "wrong" thing, Dan; that would not fit your image :-) But if you can bring yourself to do so, will you please share with us how NAFA has contributed...
Dan,
I agree that falconry (for the most part) has been fulfilling and fun. And I also agree that we have many people to thank. And I am glad that you have been able to fly passage eagles and...
Thanks for your explanation, John; that clears it up for me.
Bill Boni
I hear you, Ron. A good example would be the NAFA President job; this is a job that, under no circumstances, would I even consider taking on. In fact, I'm not sure why people even want to be...
Well-put, John. Thanks for pointing out the work that NAFA did early on to make sure falconry was "legal," in the face of a real threat from organizations like the Audubon Society. But, let us not...
Thanks, Geoff. I figure, if people will take the time to point out the accomplishments of NAFA over the years (absent embellishment), then we can compare it to the list Paul posted, and see how it...
As I see it, this gentleman has laid out how NAFA has failed over the years. We can argue, ad nauseum, about the merit of his claims, but I think it would probably be more productive if we took the...
Thanks for pointing this out, John.
Bill Boni
Sorry, Geoff, I did not know this. And, yes, NAFA does have their own forum, but it is no where as active as this one; that's for sure.
Bill Boni
That makes sense to me.
Bill Boni
Hey Geoff, ole buddy,
I am surprised that you--of all people--would be for censoring what people say on here. And, last I checked this is not an AFC forum. As for what NAFA would do as it...
Well put, Ron.
Bill Boni
Thanks for posting, Ron!
All my best,
Bill Boni
Dan,
Thanks for all you and others have done in terms of the eagle, at least we had access to it for awhile, although I sure would never fly one, as I am too cavalier of a falconer, and would...
