I only speak for myself of course but now that there is a eppy numbering
system with general acceptance I reckon the first subject thing is not
of much use. It used to be a way to identify subjects but its now
unnecessary if the eppy number is there. It would be more useful to me
to have the panel identified as I look through the shows. The date could
also be worthwhile.

But as I say - that's just my opinion and others may feel differently.
