Re: Are you really THAT observant? You sure????
 

I missed six. I remember one quiet night on the river the pilots arguing about the names of the seven dwarfs over the radio. Among my favorite suggestions: Dorky, Sleazy, and Horney. --FLO--

Re: Are you really THAT observant? You sure????
 

Good job, Flo. I missed seven - including the dwarf.

And I'm sitting here looking at my FM radio dial that goes down to 76.0. (It's made for the Japanese market.)

Re: Are you really THAT observant? You sure????
 

Six wrong here also, though it's perhaps not quite fair, since I haven't seen a Canadian dime in probably 25 years, and I don't think I've EVER seen a Canadian dollar coin.

Re: Are you really THAT observant? You sure????
 

I had 18 of the 27 right. The Canadian currency threw me, as did the FM dial, playing cards and matches.

Re: Are you really THAT observant? You sure????
 

I also missed 6, the canadian coins were two.

Christina, I am supprized that you missed the matches question.
20 cigs in a pack 20 matches in a book.
