Dear Michele, Frederic, and List:

What a terrific collection of photos. I must compliment you and all the 
contestants. What an enjoyable project.

Paul, did you find that 0.075-gram Holbrook yourself? Were you hunting 
the strewnfield on your hands and knees with a microscope?  : )

I had a couple I wanted to enter, but didn't have one of these 
millionths-of-a-gram scales that you guys do. I found a perfectly 
oriented 0.2-gram shield in Park Forest, in a car park south of town, 
but it was so tiny I lost it. Can you believe it? What a maroon  : )

Oh well, I enjoyed the pics very much. Congrats to all the players.
