Today's mail included three of your checks...and the film!

It will soon be off for digitization.

I don't know what's more exciting -- the anticipation of the film or the final tally on the tote board.

...or the final tally on the tote board.

...which was provided by the American Totalisator Company.

Well, remember when I said we had about forty pledges, but that we probably wouldn't get forty fulfillments?

I was right.  So far, we've gotten forty-two.  And I know there are at least two more coming.  Many of you also paid more than nine dollars, quite a few going as far as the full twenty we originally talked about.  So right now, we're standing nearly two hundred dollars over budget.  At least that much will go to charity next week when many of us meet up in Las Vegas.  I'll have a definite final total at the Vegas event.  Good job, people!

[Matt Ottinger]

An update from Las Vegas, where I'm participating at TCONA with many of you.  The film is in the hands of a friend in New Jersey who is taking it to HIS friend to have it transferred. Could be a few more days depending on that other person's schedule. Then he'll send everything back to me and I'll start dispersing the final result!

Meanwhile, I'll be announcing the charity part our exercise tonight at the Game Show Throwdown, following the playing of Win Matt Ottinger's Money.  You can watch the stream live to see the game and the announcement, and I'll be back here after that to share the final total with you.
