For their efforts the Quakers received a biographical dictionary and 
other assorted books. In fact, everyone in attendance at the prize 
ceremony received a book or comic book for their efforts. Many books 
from my overflowing stash were given away including a Merriam 
Webster Biographical dictionary, Fishes: An Introduction to 
Icthyology, textbooks on Economics, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, 
and Analytical Chemistry, Tristram Shandy, The Immoralist, The Heart 
is a Lonely Hunter, Future Shock, There He Goes Again:Ronald 
Reagan's Reign of Terror, various near mint comic books from 1986-
1987, and several other books. For some reason, nobody picked up 
Fodor's Pocket Tokyo. Doesn't anybody else like to read random 
travel books?

I also regifted, er re-awarded two books: 
The Professor and the Madman which I won at 2002 NAQT SCT at UVA
and The Football Encylopedia which I won at the inaugural COTKU way 
back in 1998.

I'd like to thank Dwight Kidder, Adam Fine, Josh the Chemist from 
Pitt, Erin Milligan, Mark Pellegrini and Bill Tressler for 
moderating. Meanwhile, Rob Tribbett was poppin' the Cristal in the 
stat(e)room.

I'd also like to thank David Balseiro, Eliot Brenner, Matt Cushman, 
Jeff Ladd, J.P. Lien, Dennis Loo, Erin Milligan, Mark Pellegrini, 
Julie Singer, and Chris White for writing questions.

Thanks,
  Roger Craig
