Oh, by the way, just a follow up to this, I've checked and they will
accept entries in Revolution. I'm just in the process of making sure they
have a copy of the program to evaluate entries.
Get that talent working! It'd really make a stir if one of you folks won.
We might even send you a congratulations card or a bottle of champagne or
something...
Regards,
Heather
