Thank you. That's a great start.
I find it hopeless trying to explain what's been lost over the years in the name of "business" to those that ask.
Methinks those that haven't invested their passion into the sport as some have, cannot understand. It's not a fault, 'just a reality.

edit: pach233 - Agree with all except the BoP portion. Zip, nada, none in regard to BoP. Set of rules, build and develop your best. Period.
