Greetings Everyone,

I'm the guy causing all the ruckus over at the main board.

First I would like to apologize to anyone who feels like I butted my way into things.

I wondered if we could change the Facebook title to "TheFuturistParty" rather than "USFuturistParty" based on discussions I've had with some of the board members. A gentleman named Eddie Pierce changed the name instantly, gave me full admin rights, and left without a word. This being my first interaction with the admins, I thought I had just boarded a ship right as the captain gave me the keys and jumped overboard.

I finally got a hold of the other admin, Mike Aetherial who was shocked by the event and he filled me in a little about things.

After connecting with the only other active admin on the main subreddit, cptn_jtk, he added me as an admin there. I've reached out to Xenophon1 and has given his blessings as it were to move forward with the party and see what we can do with it. The only issue I have left is getting access to the twitter account. If any one of you have access to it please let me know.

So I appreciate your patience with the chaos I've brought, and hope we can work together to make the Futurist Party a household name.

Added a new CSS in. Any edits or thoughts welcome.
