Re: Re: TB: data request

Hi, Mike,  Not all the blame should be at the doorstep of the printed R&Is.  
I recall a show in another Region (unfortunately, in this case, I was not a 
judge because I was aware of the error when I looked at the results - and it 
was too late then to "educate" the judges!  -  at least for that show!)  One 
iris - which should have been the Queen - was not judged because it did not 
conform  to the R&I description - AND it didn't BECAUSE the hybridizer had 
not corrected his error!!!  I was very upset because the winning iris (from 
another country) had NOT been accepted in "the" book as eligible for awards. 
So I felt that was a double error on the part of a very prestigious panel of 
judges -- which was only half their fault. (they should have known about the 
imported one)  Have fun "you'all"  deciding on this issue - and it is 
important that all "i"s and "t"s are eventually dotted to preserve the sanity 
of judges and the respect of the public.  'Nuff said!  Rosalie nr Baltimore
