I nominate you for the "We Don't Care About Any Organization or People But Ourselves" Award. A highly prestigious honor in this day and age.
Here's your award: "We shall surely be dragged down the long dark and shameful corridors of time reserved for those who possess power without compassion, might without morality, and strength without sight." - Martin Luther King, Jr. Cheers! And stop sending me your braggy publication called the Wisconsin Bicyclist or something or other. I have plenty of newspaper to wrap my fish cleanings with.
