I can agere with this, except you have to remember that we've had several 
slim years in a row, with regard to Tours and Pro's, so it won't happen over 
night.  If the current trend of high participation continues then I can see 
the possibility of increased sponsor participation, coupled with the revenue 
generated from increased entry numbers, to finance the resources necessary to 
handle ever larger participation.  
A number of us fail to fully comprehend just what is required to make such a 
thing happen.  It's not usually as easy as snapping your fingers and wishing 
it to be so.  Sooner or later, for better or for worse, (may death do us part 
:-), economics always prevail.
