I didn’t look at your adjusted answers, Tony. EDIT: ok, I did look and still not yet but disqualification is no fun.

From post #1 instructions:

“Members may make one post per question thread to answer the questions, and the member’s winning entry must have all parts of the questions answered completely in that one post. Editing your one answer post allowed will result in disqualification.”

We’ll see how it all pans out, later maybe.

Oops didn’t read that part, dang
