The Pathetic truth is I cant go to my own park in my neighborhood, without a recorder, camera, bodyguard and Maybe a weapon. while I pay them as they threaten my freedom

For the record, Ernie reported his own post above:

I will leave that decision to the U.S. Hawks Board, but Ernie's post reflects the torment and frustration created at the Torrey Pines Gliderport by those in power.

You say that they don't give a sh** about us (as in US HAWKS), well, I feel that there is something going on (it may be TRUTH) that they are paying soo much attention to, for 10 years now. 8,000 people paying attention to 2 or 3 ......hmmm......
Stay strong and....

Fight hard fellow HAWKS

The perfect Storm
Neil Larson wrote:Congratulations Joe Faust-
*I also recall the early time, all most innocent, we stepped through time-
We unfurled recycled wings with a painter on 60 Minutes- feet dashed in sand
Grinning you showered with Zest on TV, we didn’t see the bird machine intended-
We had to “Change Our Horizontal into the Vertical” before we flew
As duly noted by an old Venice Wino – strolling on the Metro Depot grass-
We seared albumen into alloy upon a roof top Mid Day “dark room”-
Which dream like seemed as a Stairway to Heaven -
A dusty Parking Garage became Universal Flight Control Headquarters –
In some Hobbit Fantasy Realm of Antique Autos
Each Mistake had a positive result , lifting us higher – closer to Heaven
So we worked hard to think of the most humorously outrageous concepts
Eventually even Dr. Paul outside the box used McDonalds wrappers as fuselage,
Meat Market Shrink Wrap became wing surface &
Skateboard wheels made landing gear & put the tail back in front like Wilbur
For a moment leading Edge Scientists threw away Slide Rules
& began to take their Ques from Hang Gliding Boys in T-shirts & cutoffs
Then we lived Hanging Loose & Low & Slow…Inspiring the all World beneath us
Sharing all our dreams & ideas with one another , Smiling as we Gave- Everything Away
First names were all we knew, phone numbers scribbled on pages,
A sport spawned from Word of Mouth , the Underground Network began-
“Faust-Speak” twisted inside out, stretched like a rubber band on a Balsa model airplane-
You have been the elastic motor to energize the propeller of our dreams
We thank You Joe , for having the Spirit of the Renaissance Men who leapt before you-
Breathing Inspiration Life into the lives of Generations around you.
I pause to humble myself knowing my life is richer and more full
For having known you as a friend….

Thought it would be appropriate to paste in here as well -
