Been a very interesting thread to follow. And by the amount of the hits it has had, it is a thread close to many peoples hearts. It looks like a bit of a PR disaster, like all PR are campaigns, they start of well and with good intent. What people often over look is that old fashioned thing, called, the truth.
It is never wise to be dishonest as you will soon be caught out and discredited. I don't know if that is the case with the people involved but by the lack of feedback/contact from them, this may be the case and it doesn't help when one by one, the schools dwindle. There where some big names on the list which has enabled the site to bumble along for as long as it has. They have gone and credibility, went with them.
It doesn't look good for anyone concerned with this association. We all make mistakes and we can all suffer from naivety from time to time but as a potential customer, I would want to have a serious explanation from the Survival School, Jonny Crocket and Andrew Love Jones.
But I believe that they will be attending the Wilderness Gathering. We can ask them there what on earth is going on, perhaps the would have the courtesy to explain.
