I have said this before about Jaws, and I'll say it again.  Improvements are 
not always improvements.  Can anyone tell me what the heck is wrong with a 
perfectly good system like we've been using thus far for registering Jaws? 
We have 5 keys.  And we can remove them if we need to do so.  Now we get 
three of them, and have no way of retrieving them if something goes wrong. 
and this system is better?   Jack
