RE: [IUG] IUG Beacon Award (new at San Jose conference)

Oh, come on, Said,

Don't take away my only claim to fame: the first to nominate Bob Duncan
award!  I knew it was coming the minute the award was announced --
somebody was going to compete with me.

Kudos to Corey, as chair of the Steering Committee!
