Loslappie, the "power" I am refering to is just slight compitition, as I think Cape Nature would not be very happy if 2 indipendent parties come to them with the same problem, I think that would cause Cape Nature to just close down to both parties. And due to that happening the one party will try to push the other down resulting in a larger divide.
TonyK, what do you think will happen if two parties have the same goal, and try to reach it independently? I am just stating what I think will happen, as if we are on different opinions, even if we are on the same ones, Cape Nature will at a point get tired of 2 parties getting involved with the same cause. I just think that we need to et everybody under the same name, same banner, and get our voice out in 1 unit, with sub units for like a keepers sub association, and so on, as the chairman has a strong view towards a certain subject, he will more eagerly adress that, and be less knowledgable for the needs of others, so we need to get something going where everyone is together and each with individual needs would be treated in different groups that are their to care for those who just keeps snakes and do not rescue snakes, then there must be something for those who just rescue snakes, and then you can be under both if you do both. The main point being we must act and speak as one unit, but have smaler units to adress specific problems.
And yes, this is all just my opinion, pretty much sucked out of my thumb, but this is what my logic thinks will happen at some point. And even if you have the slight politics, we need a new generation to run this who has no involvement in the politics, who are still changed out every few years, and the older guys are just there to say but when we tried this this happened, so that we can be aware of all possibilities. There will always be someone who you dislike in any orginization, as an example, Shaun, but the moment you will not join a club because Shaun is giving advice on how Cape Nature works, you are not just spiting him, or yourself, you are breaking down the whole group, because then you want to be appart of a totally seperate association/club which will be on its own, starting over and then making the existing party loose people who, if all just got along in association/clug meetings, would have been able to work past that and create an better outcome when working as one unit.
