<VV> [Corsabod] "Improved" Concours class

[Dennis Pleau]

Have you requested to be on the Concours committee? I know on my VV, Vairorg
committee anyone who asks is accepted and since most of Vairorg and I would
assume the concours committee is done by email, it's pretty easy to
participate.

Bill and all,

Since leaving the Concours Chair position, I was "officially" on the
committee for several years. After that, I have not since been asked for any
input to the rules or even been asked to be or stay on the committee.
Sure, every year I get asked to help judge. But that's as far as it goes. 

It's true that there have been few Chairmen, as you have cited. But what is
telling is that Bob Dunahugh, a current board member, posted that he wasn't
even aware of my concours experience. Hence, my post about the state of
affairs.

BTW, because of the poor records-keeping of who has done what, I have
probably been passed over for some kind of higher recognition. I figure that
I probably should have the equalivalent of whatever Larry Claypool (or
anyone else, for that matter) has. Besides, Larry has never been National
Concours Chairman. But I'm not griping about that, really. It is the total
lack of input, or even the barest of consultation (about the change of class
names), that irks me.
