USAC does indeed seem to be in need of a "resurrection". I've observed the crowd of USAC officials (paid, of course) getting in everyone's way for years. I saw office people, with little or no experience, hired to run certain divisions. I've seen college whiz kids hired to "sell" USAC. Yes, USAC does need a resurrection. But how can hiring Jason Smith help resurrect anything? Observers like myself doubt that he has ever "been worth his salt", but here is is back again, joined at the hip with KM. I observed those two at the Chili Bowl, "selling" USAC (down the river, maybe). Made me want to puke.
