No argument, criticism intended.  Simply stating my experience and opinion 
on the subject of changing the design of a product that I am familiar with.

Does disagreeing with someone on the Kolb List make me a bad guy?

I will continue share my experience, good and bad, hoping others on the Kolb 
List will "read" and try to "understand" what I am saying, rather than take 
personal offense to it.

John H.,

  Everytime I have ever mentioned VGs, I have always made the very clear 
point that SOME people don't see their
merit on THEIR plane.  I have also made the point that these same people 
aren't arguing whether or not they are useful, just that THEY don't see 
their need for them.

  As a general rule, I try and make a clear point of being tolerant of 
other's views and experiences (as opposed to others).  I realize there are 
hundreds of flyers, and everyone of them has his or her own talents, or lack 
thereof.  What works for one, does NOT always work for someone else.  Nor 
should it.  No one should be criticized for NOT following the choices of 
someone else.

  One of the wonderful advantages we enjoy here in the USA is the freedom to 
build our planes in the Experimental catagory.  It affords us the ability to 
build our planes as we see fit.  In my opinion, I think that is a good 
thing.  Otherwise, we might as all build our planes exactly identical to 
each other, and never deviate a rivet.
