Final Thought: If the item was not a safe one and a good start, I seriously doubt that Underwood, Lowe, and/or Rice plus Hanson would have been voting for such. I use their names because I know these individuals fairly well. Patience here and a special thanks to "typicalaimster" because his work changed my mind from being AGAINST, when I initally heard of the item, to being FOR it.
Hoss-
I'm with you on this (tnx to typicalaimster), though I came at it from the other pole. I was for removing the restrictions on FPV since they were put in place during the reign of The Emperor Brown, and the only reservations I had about the supplement to the SC was the arbitrary weight restriction. After seeing TA's posts in this thread re why it is there, I understand the rationale and don't expect it is chiseled in stone. This is progress, it results from member initiative, and it is good that the EC is showing hopeful signs that it can again be responsive to that.
