I realize that logic is not Sam's strong point, but how can he
simultaneously refer to "the horrific losses the USCF has suffered
every year EXCEPT FOR THE ONE YEAR THAT I WAS ON THE
BOARD" (obviously implying causality), and assert that every proposal
he made was blocked or voted down? Sloan's term on the Board was a
trivial irrelevancy. Of course, that's what he's always been.
