Well, we seem to have concluded another discussion by entrenching ourselves 
in our positions. Not a bad thing and a lot of good things to consider.

It occurred to me that my opinions, as right as I think they might be, are 
really moot anyway. I do not decide what is a worthy dog - AKC does. We have 
a system to make that determination, and we all play by those rules - like 
them or not. So, I suppose I will continue to show dogs and let the points 
fall where they may within that system. Imperfect? Of course, just like we 
who use it.
