D. Abstract It is argued that the apparent separation of Delta Scuti stars and classical Cepheids into two classes is due to a simple selection effect, and that Delta Sct stars and Cepheids are really a single class of variable star. The precision with which the P-L and other relations are known can be greatly improved by combining the two classes.
