Holy crap dude, am I that popular?
Anyway, I was just going to comment on the "cheap" thing and say the way the AMA billing works doesn't really encourage people to join up in the middle of the year. Pay $100 (or whatever it its now) on Sept 30 or before and on Jan 1 you get to pay $100 again. I'm probably going to join the local club again but I'm waiting until Oct to join the AMA first. Until then the AMA has financially encouraged me to fly without insurence.
