As I am on this side of the world, and really should be sleeping (my beautiful wife is already asleep beside me) I better not answer this.

Let's see which Northern Hemispherite can get there first...

and besides....

"moderators not allowed to enter."

Right,so...this is tempting...

But,since I just got up to swim at this nutty hour (5AM) and since I lost the last contest 12 hours ago fair and square...I'll just go swimming.

Best of luck to the rest of you!
