I should have thought of a deadline for this contest so here goes. I think 8 AM Eastern Standard Time on this coming Thursday Dec 12th would be a good deadline for turning in ideas. Votes would be taken till Midnight Thursday. (In case of a tie, I will flip a coin.) I get off work Friday morning and if we have a winner selected the night before I can mail the tubes out on Friday. Hopefully they can arrive before Christmas. Tim Laing
