it is the fact that Woody, no matter that he is currently one of the most dedicated member of the Community, is perfectly unable to admit that he did or said something wrong.
or, even worth, that someone may have a different opinion then his own.

that's definitely not someone i want to work with leave alone entrust my money to, no f#ing way...

again, it doesn't matter that right now he seems to do the right thing(s); soon or later, and i sincerely hope it will be later, he is bound to make a mistake or adopt a stance that is not in the community's best interest.
even though on TMO his tactic is always that of the pachyderm, simply ignoring any question implying critic or criticism and going on posting the same gnagna over and over and over again until the critic tires away, in a Council, Board of Directors or even in a public meeting, that's an unacceptable behaviour.
in a government, that amounts pretty much to deporting ppl.
@ best...

Friday's meeting was a painful illustration of that.
