For many of us, for most competitions, the judges aren't going to be 
anything like the experts on this list. There's a good chance that if you 
include all the explanations and documentation expected by those on this 
list, you'll soon be considered SUCH an expert that you'll find yourself 
judging more compettions than you enter.

Of course, Batlthazar, I beleive,  resides near both Huette and Cariodoc, so 
he may not find himself in this situation!

Bonne
