This is a beauty. The last one to see turns out to be the one you entered in the contest. Soupmail.

Many kind thank you's, my friend, I'm glad you liked this one ... though perhaps I should have entered another, eh? This one didn't fare well at all.

Many kind thanks to you, Connie! I'm so sorry what you went through today in Hawaii - my family and I were just talking about how traumatic it must have been ... 38 minutes before a "False Alarm" call?? That's just wrong!
