Pam, I think the point most are trying to make is that focusing on any one 
thing could be detrimental to the breed. Especially when you consider that this 
issue appears to be polygenic in its inheritibility with 
(BTW between hips and elbows, I think elbows are far more damaging to the breed 
then hips and a bit easier to pin point genetically)

I for one applaud the positive way the PC is using awards to accentuate those 
animals with good hips and elbows, which translates into animals being used for 
breeding stock. I don't believe in restrictions, but do believe in honestly 
presenting the facts about your lines(both good and bad).
