And on a serious note, given all the hassle we've had with classic as a category, it wuld be a good idea to get rid of it and replace it with something that won't cause any problems. Classic is very subjective. So what some think is a classic, others won't. This would fix May & December.
If the classic category has been a problem, rather than getting rid of it, why not attach some parameters to better define it? One obvious parameter could be date written, since classics by definition are works that have withstood the test of time. You could easily stipulate that no nominations for books written after a certain date will be accepted.
