kimoldfield, Plateman is the king of optimists.
I wonder what he has on his plate.
You still have a long way to go!

Hey guys, I am also an optimist, I am optimistic that my forecast will be close. Ha! Ha!

Prod, my money is on 55011 or Davai.
We could open a book to see who, of the top
or bottom three, depending on how one looks at their
entries, is going to come tops.

I think this is going to be the most exciting finish
since the comp started!
