I care about the friends I have made on BBO. Also, I am extremely concerned about the environment/ ecology/ wildlife/ the little planet that we call Earth. How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?

Many of you might recall that, in the original book re the Precision Club system by CC Wei, after the sequence 1 club and a bid by opp, a 1NT response by responder was used as an artificial game force. (Neg Xs and Neg Free Bids were also used.) The meaning of the 1NT bid in competition was soon changed.

I believe that there was at least one other bidding sequence that was included in the initial version published in the US but that was soon also changed or deleted.

The sequence that I am referring to is 2 clubs, 2 diamonds, 2NT by opener (opps passing throughout). I believe that, in the original version, this sequence showed 11-13 hcp with 4 diamonds and 5 clubs but then was changed in an early system revision. I lost my book with the original Wei system eons ago, and have not been able to find any info to confirm or refute my memory regarding this sequence.

Do any of you happen to know whether or not the original meaning of the 2NT rebid showed the minimum 4-5 or not? I am not asking for discussion about the merits or liabilities of such a sequence. I would really like to know if my memory on this one is accurate or if it's faulty as all h____?

As always, TIA
