Bill,

In response to the argument that the Tornado class should allow other manufacturers to produce Tornado parts, I was actually trying to point out the difference in the phrases "one design" as defined in the spirit of the Tornado rules and "one manufacturer" that everyone now seems to consider the Tornado. The very context of the phrases indicates that while a "one manufacturer" class can also be a "one design" class, a "one design" class doesn't neccessarily have to be "one manufacturer". I don't interpret any intention for the Tornado to be a "one manufacturer" in the class rules.

However, I agree with you (did I say that?)
