THIS PAGE DEDICATED TO TO MARC AND DEBBIE FOR THE ICE AND FOOD ON SUNDAY NIGHT AFTER THE OPTIMISTS CLOSED.


Congratulations to our team at Berkley! The 2002 algorithm was right on the numbers! Consumption statistics are being refined as we speak, and calculations have been already begun for the 2003 NCAR. This year's added variances were split between the the low profile, yet impressive intake of John, and of course, "the mooch factor". The mooch factor is the beer that is given to you by "friends, acquaintances and sometimes strangers" who hope this will be just enough to make you go away and leave them alone. This year's Mooch factor was extremely high, thanks in part to Kevin and Daniele, Just Joan and Don, and the many cells from the land of Elginia. So high in fact, that we came back with 2 cases left! We also found many Mike's Hard lemonades, Bartles and James Daquiris and other odd beverages in the ice chest when we got home.

There was plenty to see moving this year. Although Rare Bear didn't fly while we were there, it still taxi's loud.
