All I got was a picture of the SF bay from Matt's phone, showing without a doubt that he was there.

In case of earthquake, I have instructed Chinney to throw his body over my puzzle entry to protect it from falling debris.  You know that much of California has been experiencing earthquakes this week, and the San Andreas fault line is only 20 miles away for there.

I made my puzzle to be 'Earthquakeproof'... Grin

I pity the earthquake that tries to shake the "Barb".  It does not know what it is tangling with.

It is always nice to hear comments back about your puzzles from IPP.  Everyone should stay by thier phone on Sunday because you know that you will get a phone call from someone there if you happen to win.

I'm really in shock, just heard news that 'Barb's Cube' won the 'Puzzlers Award' at IPP, and Paris Hilton was on hand for the awards ceremony:
