Deleted (missed the last page, and didn't see 2 had already been answered).
As an aside, does anyone know how to put strikethrough on text? Last edited by orlok; 02-23-2012 at 06:42 AM. |

It's a "Strike" and a "/Strike" in square brackets "[]" either side of the bit you want struck through. Was that the quiz question? |

Thank you both. I tried that earlier, and it didn't work. Think I did the /strike first (doh). test |

Why is it bad luck to kill an albatross?

Are albatrosses supposed to be the souls of sailors who have drowned, or am I making that up?

Jeez! Look what it did for the Ancient Mariner! One shot and not any drop to drink!
Albatross tend to fly near shore, and sailors just out of sight of land could tell which direction the shore was when they would see one. I guess that's like the Ravens carried by the Vikings in a previous quiz question. Stitchawl |
