How about fighting? I know there's an I in there out of order but in the other one you said something about vowels not counting. Well, I'm off to school with all my little darlings (28 sixth graders and 28 kindergarteners if we haven't increased for the new year) so I'll see if I'm right this afternoon. Happy January 2...Take a nap Mitch...I know I'll be wishing for one around 12:30 this afternoon!

I guess that question should read Two words with these letters, flagship was my choice; you got it.

New question: Denmark-14%, what is the question for this answer?

The above answer is for a "the most" question, worldwise.~

And it conserns something they produce via nature.

Danish canned hams and bacon? I know that when I look at the little canned hams they all seem to say they are a product of Denmark... I'm here at school and I posed today's first stumper to my sixth graders. I'm proud to say they came up with the answer (fighting) very quickly and then wanted me to go online to see if it was right. Maybe I can keep their minds busy a while longer by telling them that while we were correct, there is another answer.

Could it be, "which country supplies the world with the most sardines?"

The product they make is used in their own homes and businesses both day and night.~

The answer to the A B C D E stumper is posted at next to the bottom on the 31st. The word is ambuscade.

Denmark makes 14% of this, via the wind, the highest amount of any civilized country.~

-- mitch hearn (moopups@citlink.net), January 02, 2002.

Maybe electricity?

Yes Jason, its electricitry, where do they get it?

-- mitch hearn (moopups@citlink.net), January 02, 2002.

Must be windmills....or the motion of all those tulips swaying to and fro in the wind!

Say......I may have something there.......

Note to Debbie in S IL, Please give me a 24 hour space; I am a human; I make mistakes; these stumpers are not gospel, as has been noted here before now. I study, I try to make them correct at 100%, but I cannot guarentee that; I do not want to mislead students or show them less than total exactiness. Kids are super sharp, and they soon learn to distrust less than 100% correctness; I have no children but I have been around enough children to know their game plan: Which is to question everything, fully. I am not a teacher, I need room to correct what I say.

Windmills to creat electricity is correct, Denmark makes 14% of their needs via windmills, the most of all the nations of the world.

We could learn a thing or two from them I believe!
