How Many Will It Take???

How Many Will It Take???

"It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men."
-Samuel Adams


Couldn't agree more Mr. Adams O0 Well here is a thought to ponder, how many folks do we need to wake up in order to save Illinois??? 1%? 3%?? 10%??? We have a population of 13 millionish

At our current pace, the Appleseed Project in Illinois should reach 1% (13,000th Attendee)in late 2013 :)

3% (39,000th) in Early 2015 ;)

10%(1,300,000th) in Early 2020 ^:)^

Now mind you, some folks say no way in H-E-Double Hockey Sticks is this possible. I would rather say, let's make it happen. But either way we have to look at all the other issues related to such an incredible pace.

If we maintain our averages of 10%ish of our attendees achieve Rifleman, and 50%ish of those Rifleman become Instructors(5%) overall.... That translates to

1300 Rifleman/650 Instructors in 2013
3900 Rifleman/1950 Instructors in 2015
130,000 Rifleman/65,000 Instructors in 2020......

Can you imagine what can be done with 130000 Rifleman???  @)

At what point can we begin to bail in Illinois?   ..:..

Just something to ponder.... :cool2:

P.S. Please, whatever you do.... DO NOT TELL PAPPY THIS!!!! He may just strip a gear thinking about Moosejaw 2013  :o or the Annual IBC in 2020  ++) :o !@#)
