    Sounds like a hell of a contest and great photos too Manimal. Good stuff!

    “halfWWay decent photos and a spell checker” – ironic, huh? Sorry Kilwag, couldn’t resist!!

    Hmm. I was trying to say they didn’t all have to be as thorough as yours, Matt. Of course it would be nice if everyone did as good a job as you did, but I didn’t want to scare off any potential contributors. Now Danimal, don’t feel inadequate.

    Oh nice. I didn’t see that I forgot to spell check my own intro to the article! Duh! Thanks for err, uhm , pointing that out.

  • i did my best but i gues it wasnt good enough, boo hoo…..
