He's done what needs to be done. Everyone is happy to let Ellison do the diry work while they get on with the rest of their lives. Unfortunately, none of them understand Americans or how Americans view sportsmanship and fair play. To think Ellison is a billionaire out of control is idiotic. He's an American who applies his sense of sportsmanship, which is probably fairly conventional, even for Europeans, relative to the Prince of Alinghi's draconian, totalitarian protocol for AC33. He looks at the protocol and sees pathological arrogance. Bertarelli himself told Ellison, "Wouldn't you do this if you won the protocol, Larry?" Well, I don't think Larry would do that. Which is what this is all about. Nobody wants catamarans. But I don't think anybody wants Bertarelli to make the America's Cup his toy, either. If you think there's an out-of-control billionaire, holding up this entire event, I think it's pretty obvious. He ain't American. He's SUI.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02977352419680751298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031161392493494181.post-48377323071687278702007-07-31T09:14:00.000+01:002007-07-31T09:14:00.000+01:00Two boats one crew.I works for Sail system measur...Two boats one crew.<BR/>I works for Sail system measurements and my system analyses and compares two sails (or same sail) for the same or different sailing sequence (different time, space,...).<BR/>This system had been used by Luna Rossa for example, the name is SailVison.<BR/>Matthieu.<BR/>A article on my blog: <A HREF="http://www.tribormat.fr/post/2007/06/04/It-Gives-You-Wings" REL="nofollow">It Gives You Wings!</A>.
