Daily Update: Schwenko chimes in with a very respectable 58 on Latter and 97 total, but more impressively, eliminates #s 185, 189, and 199 from the unanswered list. The only unanswered are now #s 124, 145, 161, 162, 168, 174, and 190 from both lists. Othe

Wow, cool! I won. I guess MikeP and many others didn't play then, huh? It was great fun playing myirwin, thanks very much for taking the time and effort of making and tabulating the whole deal. Looking forward to the next NTT contest...
