NovaTTT 2 #22 June 16, 2009 Yes. Very interested. I don't mind the cryptic and allegorical ramblings, but I would prefer them to be plain-speech so they are more easily (and quickly) understood/followed. Warnings? We don't need warnings. If you are reading this and are a USPA member, the writing is on the wall. As a membership we're being fucked in the ass - hard. If you don't know that already, Slyde's warnings are pointless anyway. "USPA does good for us - standards, licensing, access, insurance, etc." Sure - but taking our money and giving it away (theft?) without the due process which (imo) the Membership demanded? Where was our fair representation there? That's just the big one. One that alone possibly outweighs the benefits. What this discussion needs is a set of possible solutions and a group willing to act to fix USPA - which may be unfixable. The massive wheel of bureaucracy stopped? Good luck with that one. Mark - are you reading this? C'mon, man. You have friends here. Lay it out so we can back you up.
