All along they've wanted to show the contest pics in the hallways or in a room -- original idea was sort of musem style. and then folks can vote on what they like best. Don't know if they ask Erik about the contest. Has Erik OK'd it? Don't know. I suppose the at-Convention vote doesn't have to be taken as part of any other voting -- it's a convention activity. But I put Rick in contact with Erik many moons ago re the contest since he's the one that ran the show the last years and I don't know nothin about it. Just started reading up on it the last few days. ===== S.
