I worked in a camera store/studio once and the boss was always telling
camera owners who came in with "camera problems," "If all else fails, read
the instructions." I guess it's still true.

Subject: Textbook contest winner update from list HQ
Congratulations to Pablo who as you have seen by way of
the announcement he posted that he was the winner of this
little "contest". Congratulations Pablo!!
By way of further clarification and just so everyone can
see how these guesses came in I made a copy of the listing

of interesting facts - at least a couple.

From this you can tell that someone before Pablo guessed
the number but failed to inform the list as requested in
the instructions. Also, someone failed to include the "-"
between "number" and "37" which caused the autoresponder
to consider the entry invalid.
"We" removed the email addresses of entrants 'cause we did
not ask for permission to post them. You can self-identify
if you wish. Hopefully this little exersize or diversion
was interesting to the list's members.
Your book will be in the mail shortly Pablo!
Regards,
The PF Contest Committee
