Sorry! There was about 16 options in the magazine, one of them being Kristi, so since I was limited to ten options I had to cut some out and leave the "other" option. Sorry again.

My "Other" vote was for Anett Poetszch. I know I wasn't born when she won her Olympics in 80, but I have seen the programs and she was my fav LOL

Teresa-I've never seen anything from before 88' probably. I wish someone would sell good quality footage of archived competitions.

I voted Peggy, Katarina, and Other--JANET LYNN. (Though I'm only old enough to have seen Katarina skate the first time she won, and frankly I don't remember a whole heck of a lot from that.)

I voted for Hamill, Baiul and Fleming because they all were skaters that I hoped to win the Olympic gold.
