I'm taking the liberty of closing the voting early because everyone who
submitted a definition has voted.

The next deal is for Paul Keating with 6 natural points. Mike Shefler
and Steve Dixon are the real winners with 6 unnatural points each. The
real definition was number 3 which 4 players guessed and two players knew.
