I can't find any reference to another inventor named Joseph Farwell. I suppose that if you overlook the Glidden stuff, and spell the invention as a single word, you can get a B, but I've tried that with all the other variables I can think of.

5) And for the purposes of this quiz, should Pip's convict/benefactor be known by his first or last name? (Only a single initial is requested.)

For one, your answer should be two letters. It's a typo or something. As the game goes on, you'll see a lot of "mistakes."
As for 5, just use the most commonly referred to word.

For 2.8, the string of numbers is the message, the letters are an essential part of decoding, but are not meant to be decoded. Ignore the "or."

i dont understand, because then doesnt one of them have to come back with the torch??

here's what i have:
bg10/b1/bm5/b1/bg2/19.htm

[Amanda Morrison]

think about it...

yes, someone has to bring back the torch... but who says that a) they have to go first and b) either the mom or grandma has to bring the torch back?

hope that's enough of a hint.

ok... i know you are right because obviously you got it, and i didnt, but im so slow and still cant get it because who takes the torch the first time then? and then who brings it back?

maybe i should just stick to studying for my last exam.

[Blacknight]

They don't have to go first do they?

[srjjs]

It's better if they don't because then one of them would have to bring it back.
