    As far as I know Grady and SCAMIZDAT! are the only two 
    candidates for SP of the Month.

    I cannot be nominated.  I am a judge.

    I've never seen Peckerwoody's nomination.  He certainly fits
    the definition well, tho.

    Both nominations accepted.

    Jeff is a mighty persuasive and accurate poster.  That's a 
    fact.

    The SubGenii have, without a doubt, contributed mightly to 
    the ridicule and criticism of the scienos.  They are truely a
    force of nature.

    Current nominees:  Grady Ward, SCAMIZDAT!, Jeff Jacobson and 
    the Church of SubGenius.
    
    Quite a strong field.
