So who is the lucky Ironworker?
BBC news says a lucky Ironworker has just won 275 million dollars!
"An iron worker has won a $275m (£140m) jackpot in the US state of Georgia - the largest single-player prize in the state lottery's history. Robert Harris, 47, used the dates of his grandchildren's birthdays in two $1 tickets his wife bought in Portal, the small town where they live. Having quit his job after his win, Mr Harris said he planned to "live happy".

Re: So who is the lucky Ironworker?
Yup,
He took a lump settlement of $164 million. It's a bit of a shame really. I would rather see 80, $2 million winners.

Re: So who is the lucky Ironworker?
Hmmm... a search through the members directory shows that of the 64 Ironworkers listing Georgia as their location, Hiram Sedai is the most recently active member with a post count of significance. Hopefully he'll share the wealth...

Man! I cant even win our crumby $10m ($NZ) lottery! Of course, the fact i hardly ever buy tickets may reduce my chances, but still.

Re: So who is the lucky Ironworker?
Money is useful and all, but a town called Portal sounds far more awesome.
