Uhmmm----Fun? I think those gals get involved with a different type of game that requires different type of bats and balls. But it was a nice suggestion though!

10,001 computers predicts that The New Yawk Yankees will win it in 6 games!

Now we get to put Melly's "hotness factor" against technology--and see which is the best system!

[RayDane]

I've been working in Technology for 27 years. I'd bet on Melly's hotness factor anytime. And if you add Kati to the equation, then the damn computers don't stand a chance. I think I'll go find my friendly neighborhood bookmaker.
