I almost asked you to share the "formula" with others. See who could find it first.
For you who think you have a clue, we're dealing with the last name only.
Don't know if I ever said it, but a question will not ever be based on a first name only.
Eager to see what you find, SmokeyJoe.

Last name is a palindrome? Hot or cold, lol?

But hey, I sure don't want you scouring through every letter of the alphabet.
Not sure how to clue you in.
Perhaps, think, San Francisco.
(not sure if that will do. maybe)

That was a good one. AI couldn't solve it even with the last name clue.

I'm real curious about this AI.
I reckon it can pull up historical data?
Oh, I better mention, krizay inspired me to go get a new Winner emblem.

It's basically just a fancy search engine, but you have to be careful of the results. I used ChatGPT. Once I knew it was a palindrome I wanted to use it to avoid manually looking at the roster. At first, I asked about full names and it didn't bring any results, and the same thing happened once you indicated it was last name only. I ended up manually looking through the all time roster, lol.
