Drew,
Not at all.  Based on your touching story,  your (nowadays rare) good 
representation of american open minded way of sharing a family experience 
with us all, I decide that Wendy and you are both winners.  But next week's 
quiz will be level III .  You will spit out your Wrigley and scratch your 
blackbird colored  skull.
Have fun.  And make TN even better.
/Inge
