I certainly hope the following is correct.
It looks like the winner is Tim Lodge with 8 Points. Next, with 6
votes is Chuck Emery - the real winner.
Mike Shefler, Russ Heimerson and Scott Crom voted for #8, the real
definition. Since Scott and Russ did not
submit definitions (due most likely to my time mess up - so sorry all)
I listed their points at the end.
