Hi Dan, you're right. No Trace by Barry Maitland is on the step 1 list twice but one was submitted by James Pardee on May 17 and one was submitted by Kenneth Cross on May 28. I guess a validator who can do the rank spelling thing should take both and see which is better. It's going to be a hard decision I'd guess because I think both James and Dr. Cross are very good scanners. Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - J.K. Rowling
