I hope they do. I've been checking periodically everyday.

I think they will, since there's no reason to keep it to themselves. Last year's was released, and it helped me tons in terms of what they were looking for in the prebuilds...

Also, the Mythbusters are out. We already tried, it's not happening.
Aw, Mr. Chalker, you just read my mind. The whole time I was reading your post, I kept chanting "Mythbusters! Mythbusters!" in my head until that sentence. >.>

Okies, past that...

Wow, Neil DeGrasse Tyson would be an absolutely ...

I tried several times to get them to pick up the overall pace, but was told that the students were enjoying the moment and it'd detract from that.

I do remember several events in which the top 6 were read considerably faster than the other events. At the time, I thought it was just the speakers ...

I haven't really been around the pmod thread (I'm a heavy helicopters lurker), but I finally came round to reading...

Whew, I just read a marathon through this whole thread, and I have to say, there was great information from many people, especially you, Phenylethylamine. I'd love to meet you ...
