Hey JB, are you feeling left out with ET getting all the attention? OK, I extend to you the same invitation: Lay your gripes / thoughts / whatever, right here on the table. Now let's explore:

ROFLOL! No, all I have to do to get warm fuzzies is read the last threat of lawsuit that I recieved from an AMA official. Then I smack my lips...

YOU,JB, have stated within this forum that AMA's MA should be a profit center for AMA. That is one of my stated goals along with motivating the other model media to join AMA in promoting the hobby / sport.

You still have not explained why you feel the number of issues does not match your count. Or do I have to dig up YOUR thread to ask the question?

YOU, JB, have stated that you want more and better communication from EC members. I have promised a Web site where all pertinent AMA business would be available to all members.

Unless I am gravely mistaken, that has existed for some time. While everyone agrees it needs improvements, I fail to see how YOU are going to improve it. Last I checked (in YOUR words) "confusers" were not your specialty.

YOU, JB, want more interest in Flying Sites. I have promised to work to fill the free media and governmental agencies with awareness of our sport / hobby, recreation, whatever you prefer to call it, and assist all levels to better understand the needs, when Clubs petition for new flying sites or attempt to keep current ones. I used my own funds to make one site available for a large club. I work diligently for that club. How can I be against flying sites?

You and I happen to disagree on the manner in which the AMA and hobby are presented to the general public. You want to go for the big national show and I prefer going for the local decision makers. Show me where I said you were against flying sites because I surely cannot recall saying that. However, you do seem to be against any thoughts that do not agree with yours, a common failing of many.

Now JB, tell me and all these fine open-minded people just where you and I really disagree and how I pose a threat to model aviation?
