Thanks to all for the kind words, and to Tom for posting. I read Do The Math every so often, just happened to land on it a few days before the contest finished and figured I'd give it a shot. My blog has been a pretty sporadic enterprise over the past few years, I suppose I should put some more effort into it. In any case, I'm honored Ethan Iverson chose my entry.

Way to go Paul!
I just forwarded a copy of the winning entry to our mutual friend, your former teacher, Jim, who I'm sure will happy to see it.
