Good to hear this from Ken. Glad to hear also that the SSA did not
censor the reports. The question is: Who pulled down the previous day
reports from the SSA site?


Oh, never mind. I spoke too soon. Tim Taylor's post in the original
thread clears that up.

Thanks

I personally removed the reports from the SSA Official Contest site
after *ALL* the contest management folks agreed to the action. We
discussed and understood the risk associated with this action.

But Ron, that's censorship. Just because one can, does not mean one should. While you might have disagreed with Frank's comments, to delete them in my opinion creates a dangerous precedence.

Noun: The practice of officially examining books, movies, etc., and suppressing unacceptable parts.

Ken, I took your advice and erase my tactifully humorious reply.

Ron, on behalf of the SSA community, we appreciate all the hard work
that you and your fellow contest volunteers do and wish great days
ahead of you.

So Ron, the section of Frank's report that the management found
objectionable has been pointed out....... but why it was thought to be
unacceptable has not been clearly defined or explained. That would
help us better understand the reason and possibly (or not) agree with
the decision. Personally, I think Frank breathes a lot of fresh air
into contest reports without resorting to "How many words can I write"
tactics.

Gary - I believe it was explained in this message (in another RAS
thread):

Enjoy,

Horse****.....and to add insult to the whole mess is we have to read,
correction, see the dry chicken maker boring crap on 'SoaringCafe'
after he chase TA away. If RG and TT had a problem with the accuracy
of TA reports and where his take on the flight was, than TA should
have been given the opportunity to reflect this with an updated report
to allow us to follow on with an exciting contest.
These two ruin a fun thing.
I apologize in advance if working with TA was tried and he refused.
