Vince,

You are absolutely correct!! I have to agree with you that the flaming and negative posts are the worst things we can do.

I also agree with your idea that voter communication and education will be the keys to changing the current regime in District V. That will have to be done one newbie at a time at fly-ins across the south, and we have this summer and next to get the job done. Put "Vote Stillman" in Monokote on the wings of your airplane, have a stack of Stillman flyers in your field box, and go to as many fly-ins as possible. Walk up to every newbie you see and offer to help tune that OS .40 LA, then hand him a flier. If the CD allows, put up a sign of some kind. If Mr. McNeil's supporters decide to tear it down, stand there smiling and let them. . . and hand out more flyers while they do it to the people who watch.

You're absolutely right, Vince, this will take time, money and organization but it is not impossible.
