I think I see a trend here. Most of the complaining about the current NC

What did you expect?  It's always been the "lardbutts" who have pushed
for weight divisions, and for more weight divisions.     ; ^ >

When I was on the Board I supported creating weight divisions.  I also
supported the expansion from two to three divisions.  I thought the
expansion to four was a BIG mistake, and everything I've seen since
then has borne that out.

However, my opinion about the weight divisions has changed over our
years of experience with them.  I really think now that we'd be best
off without them at all, but if there is not majority support for that
at least we should reduce them back to a reasonable number, and
reinstate recognition of overall placings at the NC.
