And now a tough decision time lies ahead. Did you get money from Chicago? that probably would make the decision more difficult to make.

No mention in the call about money, but that lasted only 30 seconds or so, between my impossibly sore throat and the adcom's obvious desire to move on to the 10K calls she still had to make.
I really hope I can get some serious money from Chicago, both because I badly need it and because it would make the decision easier*. In the end, I will have a boxe match between terp26 and riverripper to have a decision. Proceeds will help me funding my education.
nink, I do support Juventus F.C., so consider me a Manchester U. archrival!
Walker, my congratulations. It's superbly deserved.
* no, it would not. Kellogg is awesome as well.

Between the BW forum and here, there have been less than 50 calls in total reported so far so I'm sure there will be a lot more calls going out in the afternoon and towards early evening too.
