YES. All is right with the world.

Granted, I would have said that for basically any combination of winners this month, but I loved both of those answers. AH is so awesome.

sowser

Oh wow, thank you very much to everyone who enjoyed my ramblings! I am very, very flattered.

I guess those 14 pesos didn't do much, eh?

Congrats to both great authors, and a specific thanks to the great tuba hero for a superb answer to a question I'd been pondering for a while!

Legendarytubahero

Wow thanks! I was just happy to be nominated for the first time! Also, thanks for having a theme on Middle and South America; there were quite a few more questions to answer than usual.

Congrats to the winners! I come to this forum to read periodically and would like to use this space - I hope it's okay! - to thank the user CopperBrook who gave such a fantastic answer in a thread titled [Urbanism] In "The Great Train Robbery," Michael Crichton describes wealth and poverty in 1850s London as being so closely juxtaposed that a thief could rob a mansion and cross the street into neighborhood the police wouldn't want to enter; how close to reality is that?" I really enjoyed reading that!
