You get one answer per question and they must be submitted as comments to this post (you can spread your answers over many comments). First person to answer a question correctly gets 5 points. Extra credit also worth 5 points. Person with the most points wins a Conduct The Juices t-shirt. Contest ends on March 16, 2009 at noon PST. If you’ve already won a shirt in a previous contest (WS 1980’s video contest or WSER course trivia contest) please let others have a chance to win a shirt.
