No matter how noble and high the ground, people of this ilk don't waste a moment recapitualting their position, despite what about the sport and what it needs for youth development.They won't read it if you write it. That said, resolute stubborness is an epidemic these days; even when it is obviously wrong, people count on 'forgive and forget'. My recommendation is people as outraged as you seem to be should write a letter to the IOC instead, letting them know how disappointed you are in US Sailing and the hijacked ISAF process. I wrote one prior to Estoril, when I saw the beginning maneuvering by US Sailing and the RYC which strongly suggested to me that they wanted to dump the cats. We should make certain that the IOC executive body is aware of the nonsense and posturing going on with the ISAF. An organizing body should be a forum, not a 'Star Chamber'.
