Thanks guys. That's a good way to think of it, Scott - this is round 2. I've been doing this for 11 years - a lot of rounds in a lot of areas. So far it's not going so well in this area. But this is a process and it takes a bunch of things to fall into place - demand, permissions, resources, hard work, and support from guys like you.

Yes, 12 guys is enough commitments for a weather station (we're up to 15 now!). Yes, Extreme Kites has committed to contributing some sponsorship cash to a sensor. So, we've got some demand established, and we're ready to install a senosr or two. But it takes more than that....

We worked pretty hard last fall to make something happen. If we had permisison at Ft De Soto or Redington (or any other good spots), we'd have at least two weather stations installed already.

SO..... Tom, sorry you think we're somehow stalling. Certainly nothing's stopping you from installing your own weather station. But paying someone else to install one? Hey - if you've got a good spot already, let me know where it is and *we'll* put it up!!!!!
