I understand, however the issue now isn't one of growth...IMHO it's one 
of growth being stymied because we have a list of training events that 
doesn't represent classes *actually* being offered.  Seems like at the 
very least a short term "band aid" solution could be applied while we 
try to figure out a way to adequately and fairly address the issue...  
I'm sure as time goes on we'll come to better understand the needs of 
companies that legitimately offer training courses.
