The Daily Camera had a news article about the afforementioned contest, with several factual errors. First, there were four CU teams, mine (not Ginny's) placed 10th (her team got 9th) and that was with 2 solutions, not half. Furthermore, there's a full color picture of me in my shark hat, hand-over-mouth staring at a computer screen, with a teammate in the same position, sans oceanic head animal. However, the article online doesn't have the picture. I'll have to scan it for y'all. For some odd reason, no team got all 8 right, and the Texas Tech team was the only with 7. The top CU team got 4th (no Hawaii trip for them, unfortunately) and my team got about 34th (whee!). For the curious, check out the problem set at the contest homepage.
