project selection

I took each of my 4 objectives, gave it an importance, and ranked each project on each goal. 
I made a rank of 3 to be nuetral, with 5 being perfectly matched to my goal, and 1 being not at all matched to my goal. 

People tend to read too much into this type of tool.  I like to use it to get a broad picture of where things are.  I avoid 1-10 rankings, and if two things are close, I wouldn't use this tool to make a final decision.

Project 818 and the Focus land at the top of the heap.  My preference is actually for the 818, but the idea of paying and then waiting one year to begin is not attactive to me at all. 

From what I have read, I think Factory Five makes great kits and this isn't the first time I have thought about going for one. Maybe Peter will be interested in building something in a few years.  He already shows promise at hammering things...
