Kris - lighten up man.

Normal people should think twice before they hit submit button.

You should think at least 10x, run around a block, shoot something to get your anger out, then think again if you really want to post what you are about to post.

Kris,

Somewhere someone must have done you a tremendous disservice. I have never seen so much negative writing about IMAC. If you don't like the way things are, do something to change them. Why should Bill or anyone for that matter make changes based on one individual. You have the complaints, you should be the one to take action and try to make the change. In the mean time, I for one am going to focus my attention in a more positive light.

I would much rather go out and fly then spend the countless hours reading about how wrong we all are.

You're right Paul. Bill is not worth a heart attack. And I could use the extra exercise.

Camden IMAC in the Fall last year was the last straw. You missed my "open letter to IMAC" It was the first Meet I actually considered just leaving because of the quality of the judging.

(YES Paul, I went around the block 10 times, even though my left knee is practically non-existent)

Specifically, what were the judging issues?

Ok now, don't you think it might be time to let it go? It was over a year ago. Either enjoy IMAC or don't, but don't try to ruin it for the rest of us.

Thread closed. Reason: Content better suited for other notorious sites that eat this stuff up. Not relevant to having a good time and enjoying the hobby. I'm hope everyone reading this will agree. Thanks guys.
