I voted and I'M PROUD! (Looks like you might have a nail-biter on your hands with the Adamski Memorial...)

Unlike the upcoming US elections, this was a vote I cared about! Everyone should vote for Boylan. He's the Councillor for Earth, after all!

I agree. The George Adamski Memorial Award presented the most difficult challenge. They are all so deserving!

Nuts! I forgot about the deadline for nominations. How did my favorite "trouble-maker," James Moseley, do in the nominations? Would my one vote have made a difference?

Ray:

No - Jim wasn't even on the "troublemanker" radar. It should be interesting to see whether he (i.e. Saucer Smear) can take down the Fortean Times and UFO Mag.

The landslide win will probably go to Tonnies for best blog. The tightest race might be the "troublemaker" one.

I suppose it all depends on who picks this up, and gets the word out. I hope lots and lots of people vote.

Aren't they! :-)

Greer got my vote, but I see Hoagie is well ahead in the early going. Hard to argue with any of them!!

Those Sub Rosa folks sure know how to get out the vote. At least it's really good, I must admit. :-)

True enough... but, as Tim Binnall said at his forum, it's a marathon, not a sprint.

Still, TDG and SR have built up a pretty sizeable lead.
