Comments:
For folks who say NA-Sprint is the "REAL CONTEST" - I say balderdash.
To me, it's "wall to wall and tree top tall" with Gallon ++ stations all piling
up on top of each other. It's very hard for a pipsqueak to get a edge in
wordwise amongst the cacophony and din of the big guns.
I chose to use ZIG in honor of Ziggy, one of my favorite comic strip
characters. It also made folks really think and copy - no simple name like the
ubiquitous "ED" or "AL." Maybe next time I'll choose Zbygniew in honor a a
friends Polish grandfather, or Ilyich in honor of my father's birthplace in
Russia.
Thanks to all who actually took time to dig several layers deep into the noise
and pull my signal out of the mud.
