Which is likely why he stated that "There definitely isn't a great solution to this problem, other than going to districts, but that has been addressed in the past." These have all been concerns that have been discussed in the past.
Let's all remember we are in the same game, on the same team just with different opinions on how to "win". We all want to be inspired and to inspire others to be STEM heroes in our world. We're all very passionate people who only want the best.

Of course there is always drama, of course there are always politics, which does indeed cause people to become afraid and makes it difficult to post. I've posted a lot of controversial statements in the past about districts. I've been asked (via phone call) to stop posting before and that I shouldn't be posting that sort of information in public. I sincerely hope that, that has not happened to anyone else. I still post here because I believe in what I say and I believe in healthy discussion.
