one has most of the answers--I think there is only one difference and it is easy to figure out. I managed to get 2/3 without looking and some I would never have gotten.Jere Williams wrote:>

The qualifier about cultural bias at the bottom is a pretty big one. I got

24, but if one is neither Christian (books in the Bibles, books in the "Old Testament" etc) nor American (Farhenheit degrees, stripes in the American flag etc.) one is at a disadvantage. Dawne

I just quickly glanced at the puzzle and had to smile at this one;

33 15 M on a D M C

Surely that must mean *15 metres* on a ball of *DMC perle cotton*? :)

Can I add the 16 I got with the first one and the 6 with the 2nd to be considered a "genius"???? LOL!

The suggestion alone shows you are a creative and imaginative thinker. So I vote yup. Dawne

x-no-archive:yes

Thanks, Dawne!!!! I can hardly wait to go home and tell DH he's married to a genius (no, he won't agree with me). LOL!

Yeah, I didn't get that one because the answer that seems obvious to me isn't accepted by the program in any of the variations I can think of. Wonder if there's a bug?

Best wishes, Ericka

How about 1000 years in a millennium?

Mavia

It refused that one for me
