Vancouver? Is there any truth to the rumour? Please say it isn't so.... don't let the couch-potatoe nay-saying armchair-quarterback critics squash your zest for life! It's just a lousy handful on some silly forums GO FOR THE BRASS RING! DAMN THE TORPEDOES![sm=lol.gif][8D]
You cant blame anyone for not wanting to run the event.....the sideline critics would be enough to drive anyone from volunteering for such a task.....I personally would never be involved in such a venture for that reason
Jim, Chad
I honestly hope that the ramblings a few folks (I am not going to comment on the validity or lack there of of the content of the ramblings) is not enough to influence whether an event takes place or not. I find it hard to believe that a decision to host a national event is based on whether Marc or Ken or anyone else are going to comment on it on these Internet sites. In fact that is something that has always amazed me, the apparent belief that a) a small number of individuals wield a huge amount of influence and power and therefore b) their points of view and personalities must be attacked at all turns lest the cancer take hold and grow.
Personally I take most of what goes on here as "what if" discussion (which yields the odd nugget of an idea) interspersed with some individual personality driven "tag teaming".
Indeed I would be very surprised if any of the "Manitoba 7" (by the way I can only ID about 4 [5 if I'm included]) believes that they occupy a position of final judgment "as I have spoken ... so it shall be (imagine the voice of Charlton Heston and it really sounds cool).
