yet again sarumite ... 8 answers straight off ... when the questioner clearly isn't trying very hard ....
every single answer you have given is available with a little effort at googling, using one or two other sites and a good dictionary ....
after yesterday your comment was ....
�Athenae, I have to say that I am partially in agreement with your comments, viz. that it is particularly early to be asking for answers! �
.... well I suppose another 24 hours has passed .... and you were probbaly bolstered by later comments made on question 555313 ......
I saw that one or two old supporters came out of the woodwork for you .... (how strange that they themselves in the past have made the very same point that I am making .... )
this is a harder level puzzle ....
why not offer guidance as to how to find the answer - ie google .... give clues in the early days?
but, if you have to get your 'buzz' in this way, then get on in your own world .....

I value the help you give Sarumite so please ignore small-minded peolpe like Athenae and his ilk.
As I said in another post, all his ranting neither poses a question nor gives an answer. He seems to have missed the point of this site altogether. Or perhaps he likes being the centre of attention like my 11 year old. When she behaves like that, we ignore her - if there's no audience what's the point of a floor show?
Perhaps there's a hint there for us in how to deal with this person! I will not be wasting any more time on him

Whilst I certainly don't need to justify my actions to athenae, I will say this ..........
1. I have fully satisfied my appetite for this particular puzzle by finalising same without resorting to Answerbank.
2. I have assisted another member, who clearly benefits from my doing so.
3. Any member who does not wish to see the answers, simply has to leave the thread unopened.
4. I find it hard to believe that anybody can be small minded enough to object to another winning because they have obtained assistance from Answerbank.
I rest my case, and await the usual tirade of objections from the aforesaid complainant!! (S)

Very well said Sarumite and others!...that is exactly why you are so popular and so respected on here!
macpark...just do searches for Dragonfly Quiz...you will see lots of entries!!
I support a local charity for terminally ill and chronically sick children, and Crofter has been compiling quizes to raise money for it in support of my efforts. He has been wonderful...and the third one is being launched tonight. The quizes are very popular on here, but we usually have a regular complainant...about the amount of times I plug it!
If you would like copies of the previous 2 ...please feel free to e-mail me on
[email protected]
and I will gladly mail you copies of the first 2 which include details of the charity. The third one is on a later thread tonight.
Thanks for asking.
08012006...apologies for hijacking your thread.

per normal paulineward ... sarcasm ..... so, you 'invite' comment
there is nothing that I have against charitable quizzes to raise money, and support charities myself in many different ways ....
what I think is wrong is your excessive advertising on this quiz .... some10 entries on this site to one for other quizzes advertising for same reasons ..... all such quizzes hopefully are genuine and equally want ot rasie as much as possible?
.... why should you 'clog' up the pages here to the detriment of normal requests for answers?
sadly you and a few other 'original abers' feel that you have some kind of 'right' to do what you like on AB .... you are a member of an informal grouping .... no doubt they will pile in to support you again ....
BUT your initiating comment above invites further comment .... I raised my objections last time, and was not going to do so again .... BUT then you cannot let things be .....
