I'm going to throw caution to the winds and vote for two of the three money
defs, for the simple reason that I don't believe any of the others even
more than I don't believe these: #3 and #12.

Dave
I love the inventiveness involved - but choosing is something else! #2 and #11 are just about as far apart technologically as they
can be ... So I'll go for those
