- a posting by markian gooley was found on rec.food drink,
- timestamped Thu, 7 Jan 1993 18:47:37 GMT.
-
- the winner is pat finnerty, who wins 1000 quatloos in
- addition to his wager of 500 quatloos, less a handler's fee.
-
- pat guessed that markian would post 'five days' after
- his last post; his close proximity to markian's actual
- return, in combination with a wary vagueness to his
- statement led the finchhaus bookmaker's association to
- award him the quantity of 1500 quatloos, less a handler's fee.
-
- thanks to all who played.
