Just thought I would add my two cents.  In Australia a Logie is actually an Australian TV award! It is voted by people within the television industry and the general public through a magazine dedicated to all things Television.  It is a mixture of the Emmys and the People �s Choice awards.  They were named after John Logie Baird the Scottish man who invented the television.  So the word logie also has a different meaning to Australians! Do I get a prize as well???Wink

For those wondering what we are talking about, in the USA we spell it "loogie", as in "hock a loogie".
