Absolutely Bill. And what the amateurs do not take into consideration is that they are messing with your livelihood. Playing at being a regulatory agency is pretty over the top for a bunch of amateurs like ourselves. I find it meddlesome and kinda embarrassing, speaking for the silent majority in the hobby. But that is just me.
If I was asked for input I would have suggested a panel be formed of three regionally elected dealers and three amateur koi politicians. From there, I would have drafted a missions statement. But then again, that's just me.
HAH, I've formatted this for easy copy/paste for the email you are no doubt drafting---
