I hear you brother. I am in the yes column for the record. I know what we will have with a yes vote and all the dangers it implies. Thats my vote my risk. I still don't have any sound arguments about what we will have if we do vote it down, am I looking for specifics about what we will gain. It is for me a lot like Moneyball. A Home run TA would be great but that is not what we have to vote on obviously. How can we maximize gains and move forward. That is what it comes down to for me. Scope is not the way I wanted it to play out. But it is an improvement that is clear. It would be better if all flying was brought in house. But that would have been a home run. Time to start loading the bases. Not what the other teams are doing out there, just look around. Maybe we have to do this different and keep building on all the percentages and getting ahead. Can it be more of everything? Sure. I like it here right now and I like are chances at moving ahead and putting gains in my pocket.
