Well so far no one has thought laterally enough to find the thread with the 3 numbers in it. A couple of really close guesses though, a little less than 24 hours left.
Good luck everyone...............................Tony

WE HAVE OUR WINNERS!! Since this is the contest of threes and you need to use lateral thinking to get there. I picked the thread that started the lateral thinking, Roquetraders' contest about the ebay item, and picked the third page, third thread, sitnwrap posted an ebay number in there of 170290366093, I split that number into three numbers and came up with 1702 9036 and 6093. And the RTH'ers that came closest are......................drumroll please........................ 49er with a guess of 1949, only off by 247 Rockhobbit with a guess of 6090, only off by 3 Syfun with a guess of 9000, only off by 36 If you three will pm me your addresses I will get the boxes shipped out to you right away. Thanks for playing, and this contest was sponsored in part by www.mybluerocks.com

Congrats to the Winners!! What a crazy contest this was indeed!!! But the prizes are sure to make up for all that lateral thinking - especially once you get the rocks out of the boxes!!! ;D

WTG all you winners ;D ;D ;D And Tony, I never even thought of anything like that. I just plucked a number out that I had seen on here. That really was heavy lateral thinking,

The box was on my porch when I got home tonight. Opened it up right away and what followed was a whole bunch of ohhhs and ahhhs and WOW!s from the whole family. These are some very nice rocks.
Thank you very much Catmandewe!
