But, more importantly, MAKE YOUR OWN FIGURES. Until you do so, and get at least some real life perspective on the difficulties involved in that, your continued bashing of Beyer figures carries absolutely zero weight. You only do yourself a disservice by criticizing ANYTHING from such an enormous position of weakness.

It's funny that you mention those two things in the same post, because I was trying to learn to make my own figures around that time that should have coincided roughly with the Beyer scale, and I gave up after assigning Smarty Jones a 152 in the Preakness.
