If so, can someone fill me in on the reasoning/thoughts behind it? I was never involved in juniors, so I don't have any clue how it works. THANKS!

I think its a pretty stupid rule to begin with. <3 Melissa Chavez <3 (AKA Miss Jr. Handler) ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
