Folks like Rick Strahl, Eric Moreau, and Keith Payne answered more questions than I did, and are more deserving in the .NET area for '06 than I am.

I don't disagree with any of those named. Maybe you felt your contributions were down this year but there were plenty of great ones, so don't turn down the award or anything ;-) For sure you gave me some help early in the year when I was flailing around wildly with .NET.

I wish there could have been more awards, including the people you name. Rick Strahl is an award winner every time he posts IMO. And then there is one whose omission is so obvious I don't even need to say his name, do I? I think I suggested last year that the "persanalities of the year" awards be renamed the Sergey Berezniker Awards. Maybe next year....

Congrats!
