There will be a more distincted difference between the trees in this way, I hope.

Good point, Wessel. I have a couple to raise as well:

Is it possible that we may drag the Art of Bonsai into the smelly and not-at-all desirable realm of Craft by staging such a competition?
Once the popular vote is made, do we have some experts on the topic of 'faux Bonsai' ('Fauxsai') to make the final judgement?
Does anybody have any spare googly eyes? (I will trade Melamine particle board offcuts for googly eyes, on a weight/weight basis.)

Thanks.
