I clearly recall that Ric Argente had this problem, but only vaguely recall
that he fixed it with only one or two stiffeners.  I am about to do this on
my airplane, and was planning on only two -- one on each end of the section
with the weights.  But I'd like to query the multitude before I do this.  Do
I need one lump or two?  Or three?

And yes, Dan Schafer's reminder to drill a water drain hole will be heeded.

And by the way, the aileron and flap instructions don't mention pressure
relief holes even though the horizontal tail instructions call for them.  
I'll try not to forget these, either.
