Topband: How does this make any sense?

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

Respectfully, I don't think this is anywhere close to right.  For 
example, the CAC did an exemplary job of developing a League position on 
where Skimmer techn0ology fit in its contests.  A lot depends on the CAC 
chairman at any given time, and on getting the ARRL Board to give the 
CAC the right tasks to do.
