There's been lots of good conversation on the subject here and I know that this thread and the others are being read by the members of the USSMA board and advisors.

Please keep checking in on Mitch's website. It is the hub of information and contact for the USSMA. If you want to know what's happening, get involved or suggest rules changes, that's the place to make it happen, but it won't happen without more people getting invovled. There's a lot of folks who care enough about the Scale Masters to voice their concerns and I'm happy to see that. Let's keep this line of communication going over at the usscalemasters.org forums.

Go to a qualifier, bring a friend, help out, judge, CD, start a new contest, but get involved. We can keep growing this.
