I should learn to let it go, but it's a common misspelling (not that I EVER make any!!).

Congratulations to the winners!
(with a 't' ...sorry, it's just a pet peeve of mine. Nothing personal.)
This must be Scott's year. He is winning awards all over the place.
Glad to see Jay Nielson (who is a member here) win. He is a wonderful jeweler and really nice guy.
