The response to this new Daily feature has been tremendous and I want to thank all those who took the time to fill out the ballot. The decisions have been difficult ones and if nothing else, one can begin to ap- preciate the large number of "Bests" in the Ann Arbor area. Special thanks to all those who spent time giving suggestions, tabulating results, and assisting in this monumental project. If you have any suggestions for next year's Best of Ann Arbor, we would appreciate it if you could drop them by the Daily. Rob Frank Supplement Editor Supplement Editor............
