Reporting on his conversation with Bill Lyndon without hesistation, Paul Ohl explained, "It is a legitimate request. Last year we had agreed to assess the situation given the specific problems of costs and distances. But in all fairness, and if the competition is to be inclusive, it is our duty to try to make it work. As a matter of principle, we say that the competition is meant for the best there are, bar none. To that effect, I have assured Mr. Lyndon that we will treat the request from the sport's point of view, and not the other way around. The matter will be immediately brought up to the attention of the Executive Board of FORTISSIMUS WORLD STRENGTH."
