I agree with your point; here's another hijack alert.

Starting now (1/1/2008), the ACE Certification is done online. While you have the option to hold the clinic, you 1) may not charge more than the online course (without including an "added-value" agenda), and 2) will not get credited by the National Office for more, and 3) will not get credit for manuals or gifts purchased in prior years. So, despite the substantial benefits available from the live classes, I am doubting they will be held anywhere.

Since there is no means to ask a question or get a rule explanation in the online course, the ACE really cannot be cited any longer as a means of rules education for coaches.
