<VV> CORSA book balancing

[AeroNed at aol.com]

Ken,
 
Many people think their suggestions to the BoD fall on deaf ears because it 
 never come to reality. The truth is that most of the member suggestions 
have or  get "champions" on the BoD. The real trick is to get a majority of 
the BoD to  agree. There were times when I felt we couldn't agree on the color 
of the  sky.
 
I agree completely that the Corvair hobby is not dependant on CORSA. The  
person to person relationships might have been spawned through a CORSA event, 
 but they will sure live on beyond CORSA.

A wise man learns from his mistakes ... an even wiser  man learns from the 
mistakes of others.  My sympathies are with  you.  Since I joined CORSA in 
the late 70s I have written many letters  with suggestions, including 
required membership, most of which have fallen on  deaf ears.  For the most part it 
was wasted time on my part but, I did  recognize early on how futile it 
would be to change the workings of the BoD  from within so I NEVER even 
considered running for a position.  My  efforts have been to be very active in the 
Detroit Area Corvair Club and have  held a variety of officer positions for 
most of the last 30 + years ... with  no 'unpleasant experiences' to look 
back upon.  

When CORSA  finally burns themselves to the ground there will be someone 
else to take  their place ... the Corvair hobby is not dependent on CORSA and 
the hobby will  survive.

Then when 
you are on the inside you can tell  us all how easy it is to change the 
course of the 
CORSA ship. I'm smart  enough to not repeat unpleasant experiences.

Former CORSA  VP
