With all the revisions, I need everyone to send back the mugs they won in prior contests so I can award the real winners.


It makes you wonder why they bother to post these initial results. They are rarely close to the final number.

Thanks. It was indeed just a lucky guess. I don't have any more knowledge than all of the good folks here. Tom, your contests are one of the really fun things about this site. Of course, winning helps . I keep on telling the Lotto people that - me winning would make me like it more - but they haven't gotten the hint.
