The favorite gimmicks were the digit 0 being ignored and the valid RI on the Supp/SI page. The least favorite was the sign on the freeway sound wall. * I wrote Monster M*A*S*H in 2008. This rallye was a rethrow of that rallye, changing the them from the TV show M*A*S*H (which ran 11 seasons and 256 episodes) to the TV show Firefly (which ran 1 season and 14 episodes). * The beginner class took longer than usual in part because it needed to explain both the A-B style and the CM style. Some thought it was too long; others thought it was very helpful. * A big THANK YOU to everyone who made this rallye possible: - Jerry Sotirhos and Marilyn Sotirhos who prechecked, and who also worked the checkpoint; - Bill Jonesi and Cris Wendt who prechecked my original Monster M*A*S*H rallye, upon which this rallye was based; - Steve Hartwell who worked registration; - Nick and Teresa Stefanisko, our illustrious awards committee; and - All of you! We hope to see you at December's Toy Rallye 2013! Darin McGrew, Rallyemaster Michelle McGrew, Assistant Rallyemaster
