Thanks Alan. I'm aware of all this and my point was that there is no contest/evaluation available to U.S. collectors, besides the Japanese sponsored WBC, where a fine bonsai may be judged unless it has been owned by the same person for 3-5 years and that person (no other) has maintained it. snip Right now I'm putting together an exhibit in the Dallas Fine Arts community and I received a letter from someone else in the Northeast who is doing the same thing. Small, individual efforts such as these are nice and one way to address this dearth of opportunity, but it should not be left to individuals to do what should be a no-brainer for our national leadership. My opinion. Kind regards, Andy Rutledge www.andyrutledge.com/palaver/main.htm zone 8, Texas Andy: Let me ask the $5 question. Do you personally know of anyone who is in this desperate situation you describe, being a wealthy person who pays someone else to style and completely maintain their trees, and who is suffering terribly because nobody will allow them to display their trees in competitions? I guess I'd like to hear from this shy group of people myself.
