Talking to the boss at end of show I think it was up to 300 bucks in raffle tickets so far. Good job guys. Still have the too cold to fish nite too and I bet if you ask John he would find a way to let you get in by a PM if you can't make the too cold to fish nite which is where the winner will be drawn I believe.

Great idea Prof. That thing was awesome. You don't have to be at TFCTFN to win?
Your stuff looked very cool btw.

you better raffle that baby,

I am not going to throw this back if I win it!

the full moon looks orange sometimes when it rises because the light has to pass through more of the atmosphere then when the moon is higher in the sky. the blue light waves scatter but the red light waves pass through...... if you were wondering.

WOW - I'm not worthy of that, PM! I'm a hack compared to you.

Let me know what the tickets will be and I'm in for some to keep the lights on. If some one sends me a pm with details I will follow through. I've been busy with ACONE's annual conference and trying to find a new location if we have to move in May.

Where do you find the time to make these things on top of all your other things!

So, again, I need to extend my appreciation to Paul for such an awesome job on this Vise plus donating this to the site - people don't come no finer ('cept for females )

And now. to the important part. The tickets were available at PlugFest, the past few days online via PayPal, and for the first half hour or so of TFCTFN. We did want to keep it separate from the other goings on.

I had Paul dig into the coffee can for the winning ticket and the winner is:

ME - seriously, Paul pulled my raffle ticket -

Thank you all, thank you Paul, and thanks for rare good raffle fortune for me as I did not win another raffle item last night

Congrats John! I liked the short moment of silence when you were deciding if it was right for you to keep it. You made the right choice!
