But the truth is hardly anybody wants to stand up to the old crusty political figures in Soaring. That's why many won't publicly agree with you, they'd rather use an alias or remain silent. *** Unlike you, Wilbur, who always uses your real name! ***

Here is the reality. The legacy that the SSA leadership will leave behind is years of poor attendance with a steady demise. They can stand up at every convention and talk about how they will do this or that, but the truth is, they are failing. It is CRYSTAL clear, that the leadership is perfectly OK with the slow and steady demise in soaring. Actions speak louder than words.

This is the legacy they leave behind. They will blame it on all kinds of excuses, excuses and more excuses. Then they will point on one very small example has improved, but not talk about the entire sport dwindling.

Then the demise of the sport and the poor performance in the world championships is their legacy. They will be remembered by all of us for what they did not accomplish.

Now I think I'll go back to drinking. My name is below. No nom de guerre.
