The clear winner and our next dealer is Mike Shefler, whose
blurred at the edges definition (#6) earned him four votes, plus
two points for being the only person to guess that the correct
definition was #2, "Burning; ardent." Three of you share the
second place with three points each: Abell, Barrs (who also DQ'd),
and Schultz. For unknown reasons (but they'd better be good!)
three of you didn't vote, although I kept the polls open an hour
past the deadline.
Congratulations, Mike--it's over to you!
