I have spoken to Jon, at length, about this issue. I did when I first saw the proposals and I have continued to talk to him about it.

I can only react to what you post here. Since you are the Secretary of the NSRCA and the initiator of this thread, your posts could be construed as an official position of the NSRCA. That is why I said what I said regarding the Presidents authority.

Until the entire membership of the NSRCA is properly polled, assuming how many are for and how many are against would be just guesswork. The survey was far from scientific and IMO the results are not reliable. We have already seen posted here many who say they misunderstood things and now would vote differently. My guess on the actual majority opinion would mean nothing just as yours would.

Thank you for the effort you have made. As I have said previously, I support the majority of the proposals. I just see big problems with this part of the safety proposal. I hope you can accept that.
