Assuming Jerry has the stones and a few bucks that is.To give Jerry the chance to be the hero that saves rocketry, sticking a forkin the eye of Tripoli and grinding his detractors into the dust like so manyirrelevant stains along the way, I present the following scenario for RMR'samusement:Step One: Consummate the unnatural union with Iz. That's to say, GIVE ARSAthe money to start their own cert program.Step Two: In parallel with step one, ARSA negotiates reciprocity with CAR.Step Three: Jerrymotors (tm) are submitted to ARSA for certification.Step Four: ARSA certs Jerrymotors(tm). (assuming. . .)Step Five: CAR certs Jerrymotors(tm) by reciprocal agreement.Step Six: CAR cert requires TRA and NAR reciprocate and cert the motors.Step Seven: Tripoli refuses to recognize the reciprocal certification fromCAR and implodes in a greasy cloud of purple smoke.Step Eight: NAR honors the CAR cert but Bundick attempts honorable seppuku.Fails but posts repeatedly to RMR blaming J.I. and Wickman for destroyingrocketry in the U.S.Step Nine: Jerry Irvine owns rocketry.Step Ten: J.I. attempts to deliver the Jerrymotors(tm) without LEMP.Step Eleven: (multiple choice) Jerry's been right all along and we allwin. Jerry's been full of shit all along and rocketry is destroyedforever.Step Twelve: (multiple choice) Jerry Irving, Rocket God. JerryIrving, Rocket Goat.There it is Jerry, your very own Twelve Step Program. If everything youclaim is true, you can't lose. You got what it takes to pick up the balland run with it? No whining, no excuses, no blame. JUST FREAKIN' DO IT!Assuming you can, assuming you do, we'll talk about the lifetime supply ofJerrymotors(tm) that you'll be falling over yourself to offer me as a modesttoken of your gratitude.Cheers,TKp.s. ObPreemptiveStrike: Jerry I'm neither anonymous or a troll. Name isreal, email works for anyone who hates whitespace, and all I want to seehappen is for my son to grow up with more than BP to fly. Help him...

Wallace Shawn. Also the voice of the dinosaur in Toy Story. And I know I've seen him as a guest on other TV shows. The voice is unmistakable.
