You are correct, radiogoddess.

I made a notation to check that answer when I read your entry but forgot to check it later on.

Thank you for bringing it to my attention. :thumbsup:

The good news is, there's no dangit for you.

That correct answer actually makes you this month's winner. :coolio:

No one got all 10 answers correct this month, so it was the tie-breaker to decide between all entrants who got 9 answers correct.

You were the closest with the answer to the tie-breaking question.

I will notify Carl and have him contact you for your info to send out your Songfacts t-shirt.

I will also ask Carl to send a t-shirt to Roy, since I erred in announcing that he was the winner this month.

I think that would be fair.

My goof has already cut into the Songfacts profit margin drastically, Kevin.

Sending a t-shirt to Japan would have us operating in the red this month and we won't be able to make payroll,

but I will add your name to our "t-shirts for great guys" list that we have lying around the office somewhere,

as soon as I can find it. :jester:

Radiogoddess,

I apologize that you haven't been contacted yet.

I did send a correction to Carl that you were the winner for the month of May but I think he may have missed it, since it was part of the original quiz winner email.

I just sent him another notice tonight, asking if he saw my corrected winner email.

When I hear from him, I will post in this thread to let you know that he has replied.

Then you will be hearing from Carl to get your info for sending you the Songfacts t-shirt that you earned.

Thank you for your patience.

They say that good things come to those who wait. :)
