Bob and Mark,
Bob I respect your opinion, but without knowing any of the circumstances, it appears you have offended the RC/Mary. The more this kinda thing happens the less they'll want to put on events.
Mark,
Every time you bring up litigation and responsibility issues you put another nail in the coffin of grassroots catsailing. Most people don't even think of that kind of thing until you plant that seed in their head. Alot like the discussion we had at Spring Fever. ALOT of folks read this stuff. I know for you and alot of folks this stuff is an academic discussion but for the people who try to scrap together enough resources to put on a race, it's alot of stuff to put in the con category and quit doing it.
Mark, You are and have done great things for Catsailing but bringing up all these doomsday topics is definitely not one of them.
I hope this makes some sense, it did to me.
