Stormy just gave me a stack of old (not really old--2004-05) reviews and I'm having the best time reading them. There are reviews of the winners --looks like a column written by the judge for a particular show. BTW this would be a great way to welcome newcomers (give them a stack of reviews to read)...you can't help but enjoy the experience. Thanks Stormy.
