Winnie the Pooh at #20 was the highest finishing title without a first place vote.

(I'd be happy to count, but I wouldn't want to steal any of Eric's well-deserved thunder).Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05057929228801150684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746197456569858300.post-91325188786812875572010-04-13T09:45:00.393-04:002010-04-13T09:45:00.393-04:00This is the first time I've thought statistics...This is the first time I've thought statistics were interesting!
