Am I nuts or does the order of the entries on the list for the Bug Music competition keep changing?  Are they listed in order of popularity?

I only have one vote just like everybody else!

Our wonderful Webmaster Les Mizzell wrote the automated web
code that runs the contest.  He oversees the results to be sure there
is no obvious monkey business going on, but otherwise -
the results are solely yours, the online voters.

Let's have a big hand for Les who is the man behind the scenes!
(In case anyone is wondering, no, neither he nor I submitted any
music this time, and we have absolutely no stake in who it is
who finally wins.

Best of Luck to All of the Contestants!

Order is semi-random - means nothing.

Past contest had nowhere near this number of entries, so we were a bit 
overwhelmed this year (probably something to do with the ZO being given 
away, huh?). A lot has been learned from this. For example, we'll 
program a playlist for download next time to simplify the listening 
process, among other improvements.
