You asked for comments, Roy. I find it difficult to imagine how a point  
scale for blue, red and white ribbons is going to improve anything. It takes  long 
enough to judge a show now...often cutting into viewing time for the  public. 
I would not ever want to be on a judges panel that was point judging  
exhibition entries for various ribbons. And I seriously doubt if anyone else  would. 
After all, we are judging horticultural excellence not the merits of the  
iris. Why make this time-consuming task even more complex?  Count me  against this 
idea. Clarence
