<div> I believe it was brought up to get more people to the local meets<SPAN contentEditable=false style="DISPLAY: inline-block"></SPAN>. If you have to accumulate a said number of points to get into the NATS, you have to attend local meets to get the points. It's just to provoke thought. I don't think that it's a <U>fantastic </U>idea, but maybe some variation of that idea could be practical.</div>

<div>I have a question</div>
<div>Why all of a sudden are you talking about special requirements needed for </div>
<div>Nat's entry.</div>
<div>My take on this, is if this is done we will reduce participation. I may be wrong but if I am not how is this going to help pattern and the NSRCA?</div>
<div>I think it will be the first step toward a further reduction in membership and a step toward an all professional Nat's </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Second question</div>
<div>Tony are you pushing this idea for real? </div>
