Knew that... just didnt see it because of you mentioning cats in the 
upper part.... The problem with english not beeing my native language...

My fault... Still dont think pets should be a major part of those 
interests...

JMS's 'Double Take' auctions ended today.  I was surprised to see that the
Battle of the Line Medal didn't go much higher, as significant as it was to the
story!  Darn!  My sister told me last night that she'd actually had the urge to
bid $5,000 on it but she lay down for a while and the urge passed <g>

As the Medal went for $4,050.00 and Craig's guess was $4,897.51, he's the winner
of this game.

Can't wait to see what JMS lists next but I don't think I'll be continuing the
guessing game...it just doesn't have the sense of fun that the Eep game did.

Just an FYI to anyone who bid on this stuff...somebody at
birlikis1 at yahoo.com has been emailing bidders to tell them that he's me
and that buyer A bailed or couldn't make it so they're being offered a
second chance to get it.  Be warned, this is a fraudulent email.
