Your peers have sure given you guys a thunderous "Yes" vote. You all three certainly deserve it. Congratulations on the first annual People's Choice Award! Secondly, I want to personally thank everyone who voted. Without you, things like this do not happen. It has been my pleasure to bring a fun project like this to the table.
