Hello -

I voted for Groar's Megane thread because of all the coast-down data-acquisition work he did.

It's gotten warm and the EcoModders have woken up from hibernation. There were so many good mods in June that I'd vote for at least three, if I could. How long do I have to make up my mind?

BTW: "1 random voter": is that from all of the those voted, or only among those who voted for the winner? (The first is more fair, I say.)
