Everyones busy...

Ive got 3 kids going in multiple directions, its hard to keep it all straight. Someone at VT, who represents a department I've donated to in the past reached out to make personal contact. We then went over the vision and what was needed for the future. I guess he could have waited, under your theory, wishing/hoping that i would "look in the mirror" and somehow (through telepathy?) know exactly what his vision was. Leadership and casting your vision to those you want something from matters.

True, but too much of VT fanbase thinks it's somebody else's problem**

Again, yes. But not looking in the mirror is naiveté.**
