I bring this up because a lot of people feel that EAA has become
too
commercial and has forgotten their constituency.

EAA is a big business with a shrinking constituency. Look at the
"Gone West" column each month, and all the empty airports, and it's
easy to see what they're up against.

If expanding the Airventure grounds so that it may be better used
for
other events helps to preserve our annual fly-in, I'm all for it.
I
wish it were otherwise, but there just ain't enough new pilots in
the
pipeline to support EAA. As a result, their choices are rather
stark.

There were only two at the beginning, idiot.


Who come to your limited mind, you and Anthony?


Paul Poberezny and Steve Whitman, actually.
