I told him how to spell "Schweizer"

and I never said "air pockets."

But it's a pretty good article in the Sunday Valley News.

Wow, anybody want to count the errors in this article? (Despite being "pretty good".) I love this gem: "Everything I knew about glider flying I learned from a brief Internet search. How would we remain stable in the air? ... Would the wind drag us across the sky, taunting us like a playful hunter? What would we use to sustain our flight?"

Yeah, but it would be hard to count them without a clear distinction between an error and a poetic description of something seen from a fresh perspective.

Pointing out someone's unfamiliarity with our specialized language is not helping us attract new members. Let's be happy that someone wrote a nice article.

In the "gem" above I didn't mean to point out an error, just though it was cute. The "errors" are numerous but harmless. I do hope we get some young new members one of these years!
