HERE they are, the ten winners to the Clever Contest! The rules asked for a program that did something different, unusual or clever and the programs you sent in did that! The response was great, thank you.

Each winner’s program is given here with the explanation sent in with it. We hope you enjoy them as much as our editors did (at least I think they enjoyed them, judging from all the laughter I heard coming from their offices).

Each winner will receive a check for $20, our congratulations and of course a thank you. Thanks also to all who entered.
