Joe..."liking" the guys who do SO2R is *NOT* the point. I like everybody 
(except when they resort to name calling and sarcasm).

I think it is truly great that they [SO2R operators]  have the 
knowledge, money, real estate and skill to do what they do. Bless them, 
one and all!

What *is* the point is that,  by the admission of a top contester, there 
is a clear advantage of SO2R (even though we may debate whether it is 
25% or 40% or ?? %). Therefore, many of us are contending that there 
should be an SO1R *and* an SO2R category. This is no different than 
having an LP/HP class, a concept no one apparently has any trouble 
understanding. Why is it so difficult to grasp the SO (1-2) R concept?????

BTW, as an alternative, I still think Bill's idea of  "Basic" + 
Unlimited classes is a great idea.
