Inge,

I appreciate your quizzes, I am always amazed at the things that you find to try and guess what they are.

I know I don't respond much, but I feel that if I guess, I would have an unfair advantage because I always see your photos before everyone else does.

Your Friday quiz gives me something to post on my web page because very few use it like it once was used, now that IPC has a place to post images.

I think your quiz gives everyone a break to use their minds on something else for a bit.

I for one will miss it...

Steve

Mentioning 'take the wind out of my sails' , I think this was the last 
Friday quiz from me.  Does not seem to be apprecitated any more.
