Cool

History counts and Jeff certainly has a history with PCA trying to bring in some fresh air and blow out some dust, alas, in vain.
Conservatism and elitism resents change because change threatens authority. It looks to me like the new CWR website is trying to create the feeling of entering hallow ground similar to, say, membership at Point Grey. Some Bach choir music in the background would add to the experience of going into the sanctuary, I think.

Undesirables who make an attempt to change things even a little quickly run into a wall of conservatism and censorship. The posting of full names at first without asking the members befrorehand shows how tightly and arbitrary control is held. All the above just my opinion, of course, and I’m an old fool with many faults.

If you fit the mold, you’ll be fine and some of the members are good people but my needs were never met and so, I gave up membership years ago. Pelican and Rennlist are my staples and lots of tours. (Not the single-file slow drives to Squamish, thank you)

Enjoy your Porsche.
