I agree with Matt completely. Our voting strongly suggest apathy -
the total number of members who have voted in any one round is less
than 50%. But I am not convinced that our name is primarily
responsible for keeping hang glider pilots from joining our club. I
am equally not convinced that a new name will change much - I saw no
participation in last month's meeting by the hang gliding community,
no rush of hang glider pilots to join the club during the voting
rounds, and barely any input on this or any other forum concerning
what we are trying to do. Without stronger support from the hang
glider community, I also doubt much will change. Maybe I'm wrong or
am missing something. I am ready to be enlightened.
