I spent a lot of time with Bob Penny when it was being developed, and the  
models he used. He explained it to me, showed me the work sheets and we talked  
time and time again over the subtle differences.  I made some suggestions  and 
changes, and he considered them.  Then I worked a couple of tests,  took a 
few dogs through, and have watched about half a dozen evaluators.
 
I could do a better job than half of them, and perhaps not as good  as the 
other half.  About the same as every entry today.
 
If asked to be a temperament evaluator I would be pleased to do so for  the 
good of the breed. If asked to spend months or even weeks in training, I  would 
be pleased to turn it down.
 
We can kill a program by thinking too much about what it takes. I  remember 
the training given to the early evaluators.  We should do no  more and expect 
no less.
