[AGA-sc] [Fwd: PRESS RELEASE International Aquatic Plants Layout Contest 2009 & IAPLC 2010 announcement]

[Cheryl Rogers <cheryl@dustyuniverse.com>]

I'm a little uncomfortable saying this, but I have noticed that the ADA 
folks are coming out with their results later and later. They gave me 
their top 10 winners at the beginning of October so I could put them in 
TAG 22-4 because I   1.) Pinky swore I wouldn't tell anyone and that no 
one ever comes into my office.  2.) Threatened not to publish them at 
all because it would conflict with the results of our own contest.

Well, that got me thinking. Are they moving their results back further 
every year on purpose, to "take over" our contest?

Has anyone else noticed this?

Cheryl
