perhaps you have hit the problem squarely on the head. > > I didn't say that. Read it again. I said they will work on and build what > they believe in. Volunteerism is an act of service. Indeed it is the foundation of "service" (no matter if it is the Boy Scouts/FFA or the US military)...the questions are whose interest does one serve when one volunteers and how is ones service perceived. . >From what I am hearing you say, (write) is that the folks who are doing the >building on AMSAT satellites are not for the most part serving the interest of >the Amateur Satellite community, but what? Themselves? I think you volunteer a lot for the BSA...I do. When I do that the joy I get out of volunteering is the service...not so much volunteering just for the things that I enjoy. Are you saying that the folks who build the satellites are doing it for their own self interest?
