Two players are tied for first place in points with 5 each. But Chris Carson's
all natural points give him the deal, leaving John Barrs as the real winner.
The dictionary definition was #4, the Argentine tree, which I thought sounded
very much like one of the indifferent definitions one of us might come up with
when pressed for time. Dodi Schultz gets 2 dealer points for my mangling of
her definition (it was supposed to be "An industrial perfume...").
Take it away, Chris!
