I'm missing votes from Johnny Barrs and Chuck Emery, but
I've waited over an hour after the deadline and checked
both Yahoo and Tapcis, so here goes...

This was a close and low-scoring round. Judy was worried
early on, but later votes saved her!

And the next deal is for Mike Shefler with 4 natural
points, the real winner being Tony Abell with 4 mixed
points. No less than 6 players earned 3 points! The
dictionary scored just 2 with the oxalate crystals.

3*

2: earthworm manure.

0

4: the Persian code of hospitality (also rafeed).
