i always find stuff like this neat...if it's true.

apparently for every word you guess right, they donate 10 grains of rice to the charity they talk about (i don't remember which one)

i usually maintain about a 40 Vocab Level. some of the words are hard.

and no cheating!!

I was at 36-39. Must be all the Word Power in high school. Maybe Mr. Frank wasn't such a bad guy after all...

I had an average between 36-38, but Poof was assisting :) That was fun, and we donated 1000 grains of rice!

Wow... I really nerded out.

I was averaging in the 42-44 range most of the time. Must be all the standardized testing and crossword puzzles.

This was fun... Thanks for the link!
