Hey, I think it’s worth giving this contest a shot. After all, the prize is huge, and there’s no entry fee, they take online submissions (only!) and the judges panel looks like a fascinatingly diverse bunch.

I mean, hey, if you place, you’ll get read, and maybe even get some new ideas out there, make a difference in this world? It’s not so far-fetched an idea, is it? And if you place, there’s always those cash prizes.
