Is that smaller than AAA? scotsw/ron: I'm touched, nominationally. Additionally it occurred to me that it's a good plan to continue nominating people for things; because if anything will smoke out Smoking Loon from his hiding place, I bet rumors of message-of-the-week awards up for grabs would be just the thing to do the trick...

I am prepared to still say this was a bad decision even if he's dominating by the end of April.
