I think one of Tyson's points is that the system we use should be able to
handle co-drivers seamlessly, not lump them into the "sh*t" happening
category. After all, we already know we're gonna have codrivers...
But like everyone, I'm gonna show up at nats and just do whatever the
great grid god at the moment tells me to. :-)
I'm also sorry if my remarks caused anyone to regret posting or whatever.
I was reacting to the tone of a few emails and heaped it all into one
response, which was somewhat unfair to the original poster.
