It works like this: Some RFC-ers have admitted here that they were the
first to vote on one or other of the RFC surveys, and asked for their
"Prize". The Prize is a "virtual" tin foil hat - they have a choice of 3
at the moment - and they get their name up on the "Winners" page. This
was implemented on April 28, 2007, and there is only one "winner" so
far. So if you want one, you know what to do 😉
HTH? 🙂

Sounds like -L. was expecting a cheese sampler or something!?! <vbg>

Wants the sports hat to round out my collection.

Thing about this prize, it's a scam! You have to make your own
hat with your own foil! Wow, hope I win. Huh.

I'd wait for the summer line of tin foil tiaras, to go with your diamond

So, nancy, next time you post a recipe for some nice dish you made -
you're gonna cook it for me, and send it over to me too! Sheesh, and to
think all this time I have been cooking my own meals with my own
ingredients, I might add, from those recipes you posted. Nobody told me
I could get them from you ready-made? Heck, have I been "missing
something" here, or what? 😉

Heh, but I didn't say you *won* the food! And if you'd just move
closer, maybe I could send you food.

Or one of those hats like Bob P. used to wear.... But maybe not, dunno

Took me a while to remember which but I was first on the okra survey.
I want the muff diving hat. 😉

Actually the gov't disinformation campaign, a standard
propaganda paradigm re-alignment, was in convincing the
populace that the tin foil hats did not need to be
grounded electrically. Any standard DC battery with a
voltage greater than the amplified signals in the Ghz
frequency ranges would work fine. Don't forget the one
mega-ohm resister so the batter doesn't short itself out
in a few seconds.
Note: Using the grounded foil hat as a sexual toy is
not recomended. Voltages greater than 9V may
result in permanent damage.

Hat style #3 isn't for around the house as it claims. It's a
formal hat worn by women of refinement to fancy get-togethers at
Taco Bell in the year 2023, as depicted in the movie "Demolition
Man" [Sylvester Stallone, Weseley Snipes. 1993]

Heh. If I am still around in 2023, I guess I can go out for some "fine
dining" without having to change my hat 😉

I think my hat will always be in style... yamulkes have been around
some 5000 years, 'cause they don't have that brim to get in the way.
