[NSRCA-discussion] Rules Proposals

[Keith Hoard]

"You have to pass it to find out what's in it. "

I don't think any of these proposals will swing the participation needle in
any perceptible way, but that's just me.

 It really looks like 2 proposals were supported by the group that voted,
and 2 proposals were pretty much 50/50  I would defer to a statistician to
determine if the slight margin has any statistical significance.  I know it
doesn't on one and doubt it does on the other.   Does the NSRCA really want
to support (and therefore likely have passed) 2 proposals that if 1 person
voted the other way on one and 4 people voted the other way on the other
would have resulted in a majority voting against?

I strongly urge the powers that be take a closer look at these two
proposals before "pushing" them through on half the voters that didn't want
them.  The results are too close to say that "we" are in favor of them.

Hello,
   As promised, here are the raw results of the survey.  107 unique
individuals took the survey.  Individuals that felt it necessary to vote
multiple times had their responses deleted and only their original answers
accepted.  Based, in part, to Dean Pappas' post on RCU and through the
comments listed there, through email, phone conversation, discussion on
this list and in person, the Safety Proposal was adjusted to the "What"
instead of the "How".  The new Safety Proposal will be posted shortly on
the NSRCA website.  The NSRCA BoD met last night to vote on these candidate
proposals.  The original Safety proposal was taken off the table (the one
that you saw in the survey) and the new proposal was then voted on.  Based
on survey results, District VP interaction with his constituents and posts
on RCU as well as this NSRCA discussion list, the BoD unanimously passed
the new Safety Proposal, the Class Advancement as well as the Telemetry
proposal for submittal to the AMA Rules Committee.  The Weight proposal
also passed with a vote of 9 to 1.

    We would like to thank those of you who took the survey and appreciate
not only the time that it took for you to fill out the survey, but your
dedication to this hobby.  The Rules Proposals will now be sent to the AMA
for further review and discussion.  Attached are the survey results both in
raw (all members) and NSRCA members only form.  I have also attached all
four of the proposals again (with the new Safety Proposal) for your
consumption.

 Thank you again,
Scott
