Thank's Ang Lot's of chances to win. I completed a rerurn long distance/online. Give me the distance or the amount of the return fee or my commission. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |

Thank's Ang I so don't know what the question is, that I'm going to say 162 miles. Carola ------- I'm multilingual - I can misunderstand people in several languages! |

Thank's Ang That's ok, I don't really know what she is asking either. Never heard of a "rerurn" I was thinking that it's some sort of a marathon, but I just cann't see Uli running 26 miles, so I guessed 12, a little less than half the official distance. So new guess 26 miles 385 yard? |

... I wanted to give the win to John, but he hasn't been seen. I'm back! Sorry to have missed all the action - my DSL connection at home has been borked since last Thursday, and I had no web access over the weekend. My ISP, Telkom, is colloquially known as Hellkom - need I say more? Thanks for the win, Angela, and thanks for stepping into the breach, uli! (BTW, I chose March because it's my birthday month! Such an intellectual guess.) I'm going BIG here. 2426 miles. (It's a long way from Stockton to da Bronx.) |

26... Carlos 162 Miep 500 Chris S 750 James Sotherden These guesses are way to low 2426 John Neale Now this is warm 6733 John McLeod Thanks for the compliment and I would help someone overseas in a heartbeat. It was within the continental US thou. Yes this is withregards to a Tax Return. So to make it clearer. What is the distance from my desk to the client? Or how much did it cost? Or how much was my commission? If you are give or take 10 off, in any category, you are an automatic winner. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |

well then, knowing absolutely nothing about US tax returns or comisson: 2281 miles, $95 cost, $23.75 comission. Carola ------- I'm multilingual - I can misunderstand people in several languages! |

I'll stick with my guess for now, and add a price of $200 and a commission of $60. |

Miep is getting closer, but the fee and my commission are way to low. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |
