Thanks Rob
I certainly agree with you that writing about these issues is difficult. I learned something in the discussion.
I am keeping a very open mind about NAMSA and NAHCA. In principle I simply hate to see two groups created with many of the members (and people who actually do the work) in common. Moreover, the two groups are working towards the same goal, of growing cat racing. It just seems like a waste of effort. However, Yourself and Rick White are both making a strong case for a synergistic relationship between the two groups. My overwhelming concern was that NAMSA formation would be driven by a NOT NACHA motive and wind up competing with NACHA sponsored initiatves in some sort of silly and ultimately futile contest. I look forward to supporting both groups.
Take Care... wishing I could make down for the Tradewinds regatta. Have fun
