He did, and he won :goof: Go figure :D
Oil would be my guess.
Sorry, I don't have any readily available. But they are most commonly found on ASE's and modern commems. They are the whitish spots that look like...
Yeah, I gotta make time to work on that section again, get rid of the bad links and try to find new ones, plus add some other new ones. But...

I'm gonna guess the TPG said 65 RB. BUt I figure they gave it bump because of what it is. Personally I'd say 64 RB because of the obv hits.
