'Is it supposed to be comedy?' they say, uncertainly, and mark 2o-24.<BR/><BR/>This could be just one reason for its being unpublishable. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and well done.

Look at “The Matrix.” It answered ‘yes’ to several of the questions. (See question #7)<BR/><BR/>And how can one answer: #47? “Do you think you know how feudalism worked but really don't?”<BR/><BR/>Tell the story well and you can answer yes to every question.Timberatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09017106606021535783noreply@blogger.com
