What about the frekin' numbers SW put up?
Heh - I was just letting it go on for a while just to see what
happened.
So I'll just put up the Honorable Mentions:
THE MOST IMAGINATIVE AND POSSIBLY TRUE RESPONSE:
Chuck Gould with his mathematical interpretation which, I must say as
a mathematician, was brilliant.
Unfortunately, not the answer.
THE MOST MUNDANE OBVIOUS RESPONSE:
Reggie Smithers III. Yes they are all divisible by five.
Come on Reggie - I mean really.
CLOSEST TO THE ANSWER THAT WASN'T CORRECT:
Eisboch's answer came closest while not quite getting there. It does
have something to do with ethanol, but not the price.
WTF AWARD FOR INTELLECTUAL HONESTY:
justwaitafreakinminute for admitting that he couldn't pronounce
unanimity.
WTF AWARD FOR INTELLECTUAL PUZZLEMENT:
Joe Sparebedroom for his brilliant and insightful response of "Hmmm -
That's it - Hmmmm" which basically says that I'm not at all sure of
the answer so I must appear to be intellectually puzzled without
admitting that I'm logically flawed.
NOT EVEN CLOSE BUT RELATED TO BOATING:
Longshot for his answer of price of gas the closer you get to the
marina.
THE SKIPPER/BAYLINER AWARD FOR STATING THE OBVIOUS:
Tim. Yes, they were indeed numbers and had commas and a question
mark.
THE MOST COGENT AND TERSE RESPONSE AWARD:
Jim.
THIS DAY IN HISTORY AWARD:
JimH. Sorry Jim - valiant try, but nobody important died 5/10/30 at
age 35.
MOST HUMOROUS, BUT TRUE, QUESTIONING SANITY AWARD:
Harry Krause. Yes Harry, there is more than on person in this world
who doubts my sanity - starting with Mrs. Wave.
NONSEQUITOR PERSONAL COMMENTARY AWARD:
The usual suspects. Way to go guys.
And the answer to the original question is:
Wait for it.
Wait for it.
The consensus estimate of when Global Warming will devastate the
ecosystem.
Thank you for your participation.
That is all.
Ok,
are the numbers still divisible by 5 or not? If so, I win. I want the
prize no matter what it is. .... Give it to me.
