Introduction
The Ted Huntington Award, the Light Particle, is an award of money to individual people, and/or a group of people that made notable contributions to various important ideas. The awards are democratically voted on and are currently given only 1 time each year. The award amount distribution is determined by popular vote. Currently there are nearly 100 awards. Humans voting must be identified by image recognition, and location recognition (current location of body). You may change your votes at any time. Until 1 quarter of the total award amount yearly interest matches or exceeds $10,000 (100 $100 awards), awards will be recognized but there will be no money given. The other half of the interest amount must be stored in order to gain more interest for the awards. The final quarter will be used to maintain the business expenses (voting, web pages, licenses, ...), according to free market democratic prices, any money that remains will go into the principle amount. At 1% interest this would make the principle amount $2,000,000.

Current Total Award Amount: $100
