I talked with Marty several times during the Nats and was very 
impressed with his enthusiasm and competence.

I agree that I was also skeptical about hand entering the scores, but 
they had a quality control system that worked.  However, it is too bad 
that the Scantron machines couldn't be used, since both NSRCA and AMA 
have paid a lot of money to buy and maintain them.  It would also have 
made the entering of scores easier for the scoring team.  Although I 
don't know why, I understand that the Scantron machines weren't capable 
of being used with the new scoring program.
