I was at the national this year along with many other people.  This  was NOT 
my "first national".  It was my 15th. I was NOT bored and I  watched all of 
the Specials.   During the time that Helen had the dog  standing & making her 
critique, I was also making my OWN notes, which I will  go back to for the next 
several years.  I liked seeing the dogs stand  "natural" and appreciated the 
time she took with EACH ONE of them.  
 
I thought Helen's procedure was easy to follow and I appreciated watching  it 
(and it was NOT the procedure that I've seen used in Germany at the Sieger  
Show, which I've also attended many times).  Although I didn't necessarily  
agree with all of Helen's decisions/placements/cuts, I have never been to a  
national where I *have* agreed with the judge completely :-)  Of course, I  am 
sitting in the stands and the judge is in the middle of the ring getting a  
different perspective.
