Mr Clark,

I did as requested make an attempt to pursue this outside government channels. I sent an email to a government liaison of the SSA who told me essentially that since I wasn't a member of the club they would not discuss the matter. So much for the SSA and their committment to safety. Other than acknowledging in bright red letters what might happen when a glider kites on a Schweitzer hook they appear disinterested.
