As a lifetime member who joined BBTC in the early 1990s, I share the mixed feelings over the name change of many of us oldtimers. But as an oldtimer, I know that things have to change, and I don’t want to be the kind of oldtimer that I remember them being when I was younger. The BBTC, er, EMBA, seems poised to do some great work, and we wish it well. A number of us are pushing for expanded riding on Tiger Mountain, for example. As individuals we wouldn’t get very far, but the clout of a recognized organization makes our case more viable. And that clout is enhanced by the credibility of articles in local newspapers like the P-I. It’s another reason why we need newspapers, even if they don’t come to us on paper.
