[Leica] IMG - Pinewood Derby

Wade--

That's a really fine document of the occasion. I hope those Cubs have  
a website to share it with the world. It looks like you guys had lots  
of fun, even the little ones forced to attend someone else's occasion.

I remember one I covered years ago. It became a very striking lesson  
for me on keeping rules in perspective.

There were two fathers there who had gotten copies of the rulebook  
for the event. They further discovered that keen and precise  
interpretation of said rules gave their Cubs an advantage in the  
competition.

It was one of the most depressing affairs I ever witnessed.
