Noonian had little chance of winning last year. But, it was the second best vacation of my life. The competition was very enjoyable. Meeting and talking to all the people was great (to name a few Tony M., Amir, Peter M, Andrew W, Stephan ....). Real time discussions on and off topic were interesting. I checked Movei's rating on a few lists. One list gives it an 18% chance against Ruffian and another gives it a 28% chance. Charles
