Bob should be nominated into the hall of fame as he helped modernize our
sport!
I think that we all should start by writing letters to the AERC office-this
is long overdue.

"It is not
the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to
the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and
blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because
there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive
to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends
himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high
achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring
greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who
neither know victory nor defeat."
-- Theodore Roosevelt,
Citizenship in a Republic, Address at the Sorbonne, April 23,
1910.
