Real Holder of the Glider Altitude Record, NOT RUTAN ON 21 JUNE

From Current issue of EAA Sport Aviation, June 04.
Letter to the editor:
"I've enjoyed all the articles you've done on Bruce Bohannon's record
attempts. However, every time I read one I always wondering the same thing at
the end: When is he going to pass the current glider altitude record (49,009
feet)?
He only has about 2,000 more feet to go!"
Written by Bob Mowry, whom I suspect could be lurking here! Congrats!!!!!!!
Made my day.
What Rutan doing is great, however it's not a glider in my humble opinion.
Would we consider Bob Harris the altitude record holder if he towed to 49,009
and then glided back to Cal City?

Just thought I stir it up a little!!!!!!!!
