I have seen many statements similar to this one, and it is a true statement... to a point.
1st this and all private clubs are nothing more or less than its members.
2nd in this case, currently as shown in the most resent vote, the minority want the rule changed.
3rd in all cases, the minority should not be silenced by the majority.

If the ideas of the minority don' t stand the test of time, they will fade. If these ideas are good, they will become the opinion of the majority. That is what is currently happining with changing the letoff rule.

When the rule is changed, should the then minority of people that want the letoff set to 65% be silenced as you currenty want the pro 80%ers? I don' t think so.
