[NSRCA-discussion] WRAP UP - Advancement

[Atwood, Mark]

Well, that really no different than those that enjoy tinkering with engines vs those that don't. 

I think Aresti is cool, but I think programming computers is cool too.  on the other hand I hate monkeying with mechanical things. My flying buddy here (Jack) HATES computers but looks for reasons to tear apart his lawn mower.  

We both love to fly.   

Point is peoples interests vary. Let's accomodate everyone if possible.

I would imagine we would need to have both for the lower classes at the very least.  You’re correct, we don’t want anything that would put off a beginner from being interested.

 

 



I guess I look at it differently. Learning Aresti was part of the fun and I never viewed it as some onerous task. Making it seem like a barrier seems counterproductive to me.  Aresti is cool and it's easy to learn.  But as long as people see it as some kind of burden, and pass that attitude along, then it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
