  3. Thanks for the comment, Birdman. Did people often make it to the top and get $100? Seems like quite the feat.

    Anonymous - I'm glad you enjoy my work, it's always nice to hear from Mainers who have moved away but still care about and keep in touch with their home state. I hope you have made it back here to visit every now and then.
