Maybe we need to consider that it may not be in Spadine's best interests to start a post. Perhaps it best if he only responds to those posts that he can speak from his own personal experiences?

Unlike a great deal of the others who post from what they read on the internet, some of us post from real life experiences. Unlike most of the discussions that involve big city families, smaller families appear to be more personal.

If I understand Spadine correctly then he's much like I was: only a "Family Friend", never really involved, but somewhat knowledgeable. My "Family" was from Pittsburgh and pretty much died in 2006. Regardless of what anyone says, there's no real organization left nor is there anyone who cares about what may or may not have happened in the past. However there may be some "Old Timers" left in Cleveland who do care. Thus it's probably best that Spadine simply contributes rather than initiate.
