Ladies and gentlemen,
I must regrettably stop commenting for the time being. The issue of legality has been raised, in a situation regarding contractual obligations. As a club officer, anything I say could be taken as an official position, implied contract, or binding obligation, whether I mean it that way or not, and so I cannot continue talking this through with you in light of a member's possible legal action. While I have some leeway to speak my mind under the rules of the club, the law is not so forgiving. I cannot risk allowing my words to worsen any legal difficulties that anyone may soon bring to bear, or allow my opinion to embroil the club in actions that could drain funds that would be better spent on charity and events for the enjoyment of the members. I hope that you will understand my position in this, and I regret that the threat of legal action has forced me to this point. I hope that our chats thus far have helped.
Sincerely,
--
