Hey Dennis,

I just came across your blog a few days ago, and since then I've amused myself by tracking down your last few quizzes and answering them (even though it's waaaaaay past the deadline).

Anyway, here are my responses:

Thanks, and looking forward to your next quiz!

WB (May I call you WB?), welcome to the classroom! I checked out your answers, and I must say I'm blown away by the effort you put into answering these questions, and also that you'd backtrack and find the Christmas quiz. I haven't had time to actually read them yet, but I will. May I paste them in the respective quiz comments columns? Also, since you enjoyed those so much, here's the other two that we've done so far: Professor's Wagstaff's Summer of 42 (Questions, That Is) Quiz and Mr. Hand's Spring Pop Quiz. The next quiz is coming up sooner than even I thought, so keep your eyes open!

Thanks for the welcome! (You can call me "Yogesh," by the way, since that's my name.) I suppose you can post the answers in your comments section if you want, but I should note that if I had been going to post them there, I would have made the answers much shorter. (As it is, the first one, at least, will probably double the length of your comments section!) For that one, at least, you might just want to post a link to it in the comments column.

Yogesh: The length is no problem at all. There’s already 50-odd lists in there. And I like the long answers. I tend to be a little on the logorrheic side myself, so I really enjoy when someone takes the time to get detailed or just leave in all the little asides and things that strike them when they answer. I’ll paste yours in for easy access!

Fair enough.
