[Frameworks] FLEX - rated kick ass by an all female jury

[Warren Cockerham]

.. even after a second (and third) look, I didn't notice my typo until
after I hit "send"

that last honorable mention should read:

*Bay of Plenty *by Milva Stutz
for its humor and deconstruction of gender stereotypes

good night everyone!  I'm tired..
