Sheryly, I'm such an idiot.  I have no idea how I missed that.  Y'all say it 
with me now:  "Howard, you are such a moron!"

Of course, this is the answer.  Like I said, me quoting the AERC rulebook is 
like Bozo the Clown trying to decipher Physics.  Man, I missed that paragraph 
totally.

I hope a witness who rode at Malibu takes Susan up on her offer.  Heck, I'll 
even throw ten bucks into the ring, and I'm the cheapest person I know.  

Thank you Sheryl.
