The "who knows" brings up a point that makes counting points at VTR Concours
most futile. VTR refuses to tell those in Concours where points were lost.
So in the above example you may loose 2 points or 30 for that infraction but
you as the contestant will never know. How can the serious Concours folk
correct what Darrell and his legions feel is incorrect if the scoring sheets
are not given to the contestants?
