            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                              I believe you awarded me an incorrect number of points for the group winner predictions. I suspect the problem was in my France being 2nd prediction since I had written:

                              Group G
                              France - 2nd
                              South Korea - 1st
                              Note that although France is listed first, I clearly labelled it as 2nd. Yes, I was too lazy to rearrange countries. I copied and pasted your original post, labelled the countries and deleted the ones not ranked 1 or 2. Hence in some groups my prediction for #2 is actually listed first.
