Slowly coming back to me . . . I was approached by someone at Visalia (lost that contact info) who wanted to represent the 2nd leg (I assume it was the Sacramento club). If all we need to do as the first leg is normalize the scores and forward them we can do the triad this year. If that person is out there ping me off list and I will get you the normalized scores.
Could someone at Visalia verify the location of the trophy? Paul www.casl.net PS I like the regional over national. Very few have the resources to travel that far. There are no good thermals east of the Rockies anyway ;^P On Wed, 9 Feb 2005 18:22:25 -0800 (PST), Daryl Perkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The Triad was a real neat concept.
