This contest will be done in threes. I have picked 3 numbers. These numbers have been pulled from previous posts (RTH forum posts) that were posted within the last 3 weeks. All 3 numbers are between 1 and 9,999. Each person gets one guess, the 3 people closest to the 3 correct numbers (either higher or lower, in the event of a tie the one posted first will win) will each receive a flat rate box of material from Arizona that was collected by Rodney, Jamie, Chris and myself during the past week. The size of the material is fist sized and smaller. You may change your guess at anytime, but please do so by adding to your original post. If a number has already been guessed you cannot duplicate it. Any forum member, regardless of location may join in. This contest will end at 6pm RTH time next Sunday, at which time the 3 winners will be announced. The following pictures are representative of the material that is in the box. Fortification nodules Burro Creek nodules Burro Creek, chrysacolla, and moss More moss, plume and nodules I tried but I could not get the thunder egg to fit into a box, so it is not included. Burro Creek on the left and 4th of July Butte moss on the right Good luck, and remember to think outside the box. Tony

One of you are very very close, the rest not so much so. Think outside the box, or as Roquetrader says, use some lateral thinking (I like that saying, I may start using it at work!!)
Good luck.....................Tony

Since I changed my email on my llanago account and never got activation code and had to re-register, does that mean I get TWO chances?? ;D ;D Naw, I'll just stick with my # and keep the fingers crossed. Never works with lottery tickets though!
