   actually it's " promoted to your level of incompetence" but essentially it's   
   the same.

   this is all very good and well, but we are not talking CEO's or literature.   
   if we go back to the initial observation made about a sport then we hit far   
   more complex issues.  we must take into account the a/s/l and racial issues   
   of the event as well.  the judging panel may even be biased politically,   
   etc.  god knows, if you ever watch Eurovision it's a wonder the same country   
   doesn't win every year. polotics are rife in european sport.   
      
   is it just experience that is gaining them more marks?
