all well and good, IF you ignore the part where I said I had been contacted by MULTIPLE people.  Yes I stole a quote from 1, that does not negate the question.  Now there os an answer I can point back to for ALL of them

That person's question regarding some LP members making T-shirts, and 
promoting them,  was already answered in the LP design group several 
days ago.

The subsequent social media post was more of the same line of inquiry, 
but with added insinuation that LP national has some back-end favoritism 
method for acquiring T-shirt designs.

I, and Caryn Ann, both gave answers in that person's social media post.  
We also both explained that they can contact the LP executive director, 
and we supplied that info, etc.
