1) Do you know someone who is the ultimate Hamiltonian?
2) Do you know someone who works tirelessly for their community?
3) What Hamiltonian, in your estimation, made the most impact on this community in 2013?
A panel of distinguished citizens will use independent research, along with the support letters provided by the nominators, to reach its decision.
