All right, now I have to weigh in on this. While I ultimately got to be Ok with Bill, my impressions are the same as the rest of yours. Bill was president when I joined, and he was really aloof. I took my father with me for a run to the Hershey swap meet, and he was not at all friendly. In fact my father had commented on this as well. And then when I tried to get a buddy of mine to join the club, I had him come to a meeting. Bill then had the new members stand up and introduce themselves. So my friend got up and said that now that he had a Porsche, he would like to join the club. To which Bill replied "It is pronounced Por-Sha", and then condescendingly said that it is all "part of the learning process". Needless to say, my friend left and never returned.
In fact, now you all know the reason why I refuse to say "Por-Sha".
