Looks like we are slowly heading for a one class system and at the highest
class at that as the greatest increase was in the number of Extras. On a
percent growth basis, it's even more noticeable. The Extra class grew 34%
in that time period.

If you consider the Tech and Tech Plus as one class, it sure seems that way,
Dee.

Of course Novice, Advanced and Tech Plus have to decrease, because no new ones
are being issued. Extra can only decrease by expiration/cancellation, of
course.

Note how little Advanced has decreased, (percentagewise) though.
