I still think that there is a communication problem here. End stage means severe... means grade IV... worst possible... not a candidate for ADR. The requirement for reasonable facet condition for ADR is not a new development. We knew that back in the day when ADR's were made out of wood.

I don't get it. I think there is something about this that I am missing.
