Stay tuned.

Nana and I are going to determine the winner right now. |

| WOW!!! Um, I'm stunned!
I saw the PM and wondered what the .... In all honesty, I had sort of forgotten about this. I did use science to figure out my guess (well... sort of... more like math).
Thanks for the amazing contest, Ten!
