Dear Mr. Scherr,

Thank you,

Looking at the vagueness of the instruction the bottom of tank can still be the floor. It is just an interesting way to read the rules.  I know that Head Ref (Steve Scherr) at the Osborn Park Tournament Address this directly with the field judges and still said that it counted.
