to the contest ttkoo. I was hoping that you would join in the fun.

One of my handmade prizes would look just fine down under.

I'll pick up your guess in the next update.

I see the opener now on the back blade. You see the base through the space. Great illusion. By chance or plan?

I will post a hazard guess soon, but I am so way below all the other guesses posted thus far...I'm half way embarrassed to post it!

I will calculate again and post my light guess.

Anyone want to give me a little insight as how you arrived at your guess!

@Burton - to the contest.

I was hoping you would stop by to defend your podium finish from my 10K contest.

You're starting in a 5 point hole, but this is a 10-round contest this time so you can make it up with a few good guesses.

I count what I can count.....guesstimate the rest.

The only reason I won last time was because of my, I have no clue 1967 guess. But nobody could catch me the next round. And I was 1700 off.

Just have fun.

Best of wishes with that request! Let's see what the players say.

Pure coincidence loonie - but I'm pleased that you like it.

Not a bad strategy to enjoy your favorite numbers here in the early going. You might reconsider in the later rounds when the containers are a LOT bigger.

Funny - My cousin was a 455 Olds guy - I was a 455 Buick guy
