Well you seem to have a point, but it seems to me that Foameo deserves
a mention there. Hmm... What about the Tholen/Barlo "Classic
Erroneous Retuftaion"? Ecch, doesn't scan well, but y'all get the
idea.

And Deco? Non-overlapping Awards for AFAB are a Good Thing. HTH.

It's not a bad idea as it's an award given once every few months. Once
you get past Tholen, Kazoo and Goat****er Bill Hughes (who won't poast in
AFA-B) it's pretty much run its course.
