A forum site I belong to, non Baja related, has an ignore choice for posters you want to ignore.

Yep. It probably wouldn't be used much.
The attraction of these posters is similar to that of a road kill. Although it's an offensive sight you can't take your eyes off it. They are riveted
to the horror of the scene.

...I received a very gracious note from kimberley R last night,,,an unexpected thanks for a very modest contribution.
...I had made the donation with an open mind to the situation,,,but get a clear impression of an open-hearted sort somewhere there,,,tho overwhelmed
with all that life brings.
....it occurs to me there might be some benefit to set up a private forum for those who actually want to assist in an 'unconditional' manner,,so that
support,,planning,and discussion might happen in a more focused way...let me know if that would be something I could do

I believe that's an excellent idea. BajaNomad has seemingly outlived it's usefulness in this matter and perhaps it's time to send it on to a different
level in another venue. Perhaps a Facebook page would suit the need.

It seems to me that if the family wanted the thank yous to be public they would have posted it here on the board. Isn't there a private contribution
page called Plum? Whatever happened to anonymous giving?

Dennis there is already a page on the Plum fund that the family set up. What do you mean BajaNomad has outlived its usefulness in this matter? They
have allowed Baja Blanca to post every statement from the family requesting aid and have allowed the family to post the link for the page for
donations. Do you think Doug should run a public auction now? I don't get what you are stating. If people want to give that is fine. Now it's come
to people tooting their own horn on a public forum that they have contributed. This is a new low in cyber donations. | Quote: | Originally posted by DENNIS

Here is the link to the page to give to Gary's family to aid in the search. They also list the names of the contributors and I don't see any recent
contributions. Perhaps those that want to contribute can utilize the venue the family has set up.

Yesterday marked the year anniversary of Gary's disappearance. Hopefully there will be more answers to the disappearance and the search and rescue
for Gary will end soon by the family finding him.

This issue here ceased being about Gary six months ago and morphed into a grotesque display of ego wrestling.
I think it's time to put it to rest.

Yes I agree. But what is even more grotesque is a PDOD. (Public display of donations). If it's from the heart, do it. If you want everyone to know
how much money you gave, it seems you want gratification more from an audience than from self-satisfaction.

I didn't slam the family. I asked for a more specific outline of how the investigation and search would be conducted. With no clear outlines as to
where the vehicle was found except a rudimentary map, all evidence that was found in the car discarded, and no one willing to collaborate with the
Rancher or let others collaborate with the rancher as to the details, the search seems destined to be on hold.
I do care what happened to Gary. People that acknowledge a thank you? That is fine. But to publicize a thank you that clearly was sent in a private
manner is quite another thing.
