Thanks to all of you and especially to you Book organizing and running this game

compliments to the committee. In generally the list is pretty well. Bill Gates' father is a bit surprising and I have never heard of John Eldrich. But the newcomers are almost all well chosen, maybe Lee Kerslake or van halen could have been added. I guess 14 hits this year. Kirk should remain number 1, as a living legend of the Deathlist he deserve the top of the list, Happy New Year to all of you!
