Spring Theme Voting Results: 'Moving Out'

In August, Blast Furnace posted a poll that allowed readers to vote for a theme for its Spring (second) edition. The three (3) possible choices were:

A - family traditions
B - hometown heroes / defining 'hero' / heroism
C - moving out

You responded: moving out received the most hits at 22, with "hometown heroes" and "family traditions" tying at 12 each. Blast Furnace thanks you for participating.
