He did nail SAAC on that one though. And I for one still don't see why anyone would want to support Kopec and Eber in a financial sense. A chartered NPO trustee run organization would be just as good (maybe better) at preserving a legacy; but the time for that went bye, bye when SAAC went for profit. What I still see is that both sides are so full of BS that it's collecting on the whole hobby. And it stinks.

Your point is true, however don't "bus-roll" Rick and Ken just because they are making profit. Lord knows, I am not the biggest SAAC fan out there, BUT they have provided a product that many see value in, and seeing such value are willing to pay dues to get the percieved benefits. Remember basic economics, "find a need and fill it"? They did. It's just that the train they hopped on has stopped and asked them for tickets.

I find the fact that both sides, who had their lips firmly attached the other's butt for years, have now "suddenly" discovered that the other is Satan incarnate!!!!
