So I'd consider the matter of categories closed for 2012.

Yes, we have a vote for changing the December classic to something else. But, since we have another classic, we can have another vote or just change it. I'm in favor of just changing it. Oh and if we are keeping two classics for 2012, then we better make damned sure that none of the books nominated (outside of the classic months) are not classic at all. That nobody would ever say that what's nominated is a classic. That's only fair to those of us who don't want two classics but have to put up with it. So, do we dump a classic month or do we made damned sure no classics get nominated in any other month?
