I certainly have no animosity toward AL folks at all. However, the
SECC exists primarily as a score repository, not as support for
contest clubs everywhere. If a large chunk of our circle's population
is no longer submitting scores for the SECC, then a change in circle
should be considered. OTOH, if our AL members continue to submit
scores for the SECC, the circle is fine where it is. (Sorry, Jere et
al!) It becomes stickier if *some* AL folks continue to report for us
and some don't.
The bottom line is that with the formation of the ACG things have
changed, and the definition of our circle may need to be changed
because of it.
