I went to SCALE a couple times (20-ish years ago) and I'm pretty sure RMS was not there. I learned a lot of new things and met a bunch of great people. We showed a 747 flight sim with full cockpit mockup that was largely based on FlightGear. These days I kinda have had my fill of conferences and travel. But yeah, how do people like RMS exist in positions of leadership and respect for so long? No one is perfect, but some people are just awful. Leadership demands integrity. But then we are all still full of contraditions. I have a retired fire fighter captain friend from HS that will tell you all the right things about leadership in a personal context ... and then turn around and go vote for guess who. So ... ?????
