Special Mention Awards

Newsletter Cover Postcards — "A very novel and fun idea...the artwork
was neat..."; "A great way to get enjoyment out of the hard work that
goes into creating the newsletter covers"; "Very Internet."

Cleveland Area Mensa

Splash Page Featuring a Solar System o' Planets — "First impressions
are important, and this site makes a stunning one with the planets.
Very striking, intriguing first impression, a fancy graphic with
animation that doesn't take forever to load."

Columbus Area Mensa
David Smith

Most Information About Mensa — "Beautifully organized and up-to-
date with national and international by-laws, election results,
great PRP site..."

Mensa of Eastern North Carolina
Amy White

Pensapieces Game — "This online game adds a new piece every few
days to a picture of a local landmark, until the picture is revealed or
someone guesses what the landmark is"; I like the way this
encourages members to participate...excellent use of the Internet...
may draw in members who don't attend activities."

Northwest Florida Mensa
Jim Fitzgerald

Deep Thoughts, by Jerry Ghigliotti — "Incredible amount of work
and it gets members involved. Questions on a wide variety of
topics, members contribute answers everyone else can read.";
"...random and interesting topics..."; "Perfectly representative
of how, given ten Mensans, you'll get 11 opinions."; "I love the
insight into how other Mensans think and feel about everything
from social issues to kissing techniques."

San Francisco Regional Mensa Peter Midnight
