Oh, yeah, and thank Carla Mae Richards for following through with this when the veterans committee inquired.

Thanks Delia. What a relief!!
This was becoming a big problem in my Walter Mitty world where I was going to be cleaning up at the World Cups in the next few years before moving on to be Veteran World Épée Champ on my first try five years from now.
Actually this is good news for you, is it not? You won't have to avoid the Peabody WC now.
