Despite my last minute appeal, we've ended up with a rather feeble 11 defs
of the word GELDHEAD, one of which came from my dictionary. Please vote
for your two favourites by public reply to this message before the deadline
of:

10:00 CEDT on Sunday 29th May
or 09:00 BST for the dealer
or 08:00 UTC
or 4:00 AM EDT
or 1:00 AM PDT
or 18:00 AEST in Melbourne
or 20:00 NZST in Wellington

New Players are always welcome - just don't look up the word until after
you've voted.

-- Tim L

5 because it sounds fishy, and 11 because I was reading about Point
Roberts the other day.

P.S. It's a holiday weekend here, which may account for fewer
definitions than usual.
