These are both very funny! I need the laugh.

All day I'm on these boring conference call talking about tax law and this is what I am doing so that I can stay awake!

- Most of us are racers from other regions/club racing so should have diverse opinions.
- Most of us don't know Luigi outside of this forum so we shouldn't be biased in his favour.
- No one likes cupcar guys or lawyers, and especially not cupcar guys that are lawyers.
- This is a forum where no one can agree about anything.

Yet somehow PCA medical has made a decision so monumentally stupid that it has united everyone on a forum 100% against them. Good job PCA medical; you achieved the equiv of universal world peace by being so bad that even the trolls and yahoos on the fringes couldn't get on board.

I guarantee they're reading this thread though and are probably like 'no, we made the right call, unsanctioned cpap machines are the #1 killer of racers'

Zone 11 is Alaska and Hawaii, which somehow made sense to PCA, and Alaska and Hawaii share the same zone rep. Yup, sounds like typical PCA logic.

When I pressed send on my original post I thought to myself "OK, prepare to get flamed a little bit." It's Rennlist, after all, and you just never know which way a post is going to go.

The most anyone (aside from PCA National) has disagreed with me is to say "don't let them prevent you from racing - who cares and just give them the data." But they also tell me I'm not wrong.

If you look at the minutes from the middle finger suspension PCA claims that 500 man hours went into the investigation. 500 man hours! How ridiculous is that? Did they find out if the moon landing was real and where Jimmy Hoffa is buried while they were at it?

This could be over tomorrow. They could just say that they took a fresh look at it and realized that there was no minimum standard. Instead, they are now desperately trying to figure out a plausible way to tell me I am wrong.

Thanks Matt! I still can't believe this is needed.

Jimmy Hoffa was buried in the Route 3 end zone of old Giants Stadium, and pretty sure that PCA wasn’t the organization that buried him there, but seeing as how they found him first, sure makes sense that they take credit for the find.

Can’t comment on Apollo 11 though. PCA is still investigating…

500 hours?! Do these people have real jobs? Did they get fired from their real jobs, and now have nothing better to do than turn this CPAP thing into a 'cause'? It's beyond ridiculous.

Hoffa didn't use his cpap and fell asleep while walking near the concrete and got buried.
