EAA Board Of Directors (Here We Go Again)

I sort of feel like the Harold Stassen of the EAA election process, but here
we go again.

In 1997, I ran for the EAA Board Of Directors and got some 700 of you to
email me your proxies. The vote was 700 to 35,000 for the proxies that EAA
held for the current board member candidate. (I ran in 1988 with the same
results.)

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and
expecting different results. If things hadn't changed, I wouldn't have run
again.

However, EAA has expanded their board to an additional 11 new board members,
so I'm not running against an incumbent or an insider. I may just have a
chance if EAA wants to truly open up the process to the rest of the world.

Stand by for a request from you to nominate me to this board. Although all
it takes is 25 current EAA member signatures, a few thousand wouldn't hurt
at all in the process.

Bless you if you can help.

You can count me and Margy in.
I don't suppose the EAA permits cumulative voting?

You can count me in too. My renewal for the Poberancy trust fund comes
due next month and I really am debating not to fund their lavish
lifestyle under the cover of helping the TRUE experimental builders. We
need more people like you to talk some sense to these guys. Have ya
ever noticed how many times Pob's pic appears in each issue while
pressing stuff never gets too much attention?? One case in mind, if one
builds a experimental plane with a powerplant thats not a Lyc getting
insurance is a real fight.The whole idea of the EAA years ago was to
propagate cutting edge stuff, not quench it..Go for it Jim..
