mathNEWSquiz #5

Yes, we got submissions!

Hey everybody! We are happy Squiz guys, Anton and I. Why do you ask? Well we got lots of submissions and we are very happy about this. Well Harry Potter is coming out today and someone (who will remain nameless) convinced me to read the book. Hopefully I will have it read by the time you read this so that it will be for when I see the movie tonight. That's enough of that, here's last issue's answers: Lyrics 1. Train -- Drops of Jupiter 2. Earth, Wind and Fire -- Jupiter 3. Jewel -- Jupiter 4. Smashing Pumpkins -- Jupiter's Lament 5. Tori Amos -- Hey Jupiter Theme: Jupiter Astrology 1. Leo, Aries, Sagittarius 2. Emerald 3. Sagittarius 4. Capricorn 5. Any of mystery, illusion, imagination, dreamlife .... Planets 1. Venus 2. Jupiter 3. Mars 4. Mercury 5. Uranus

We had 7 submissions and most were very close. Since the answer to Astrology #5 was vague everybody that put something got a half mark. There is also some question to the answer to Planets #5 so we are going on NASA with this one. So here are the people that submitted and the number they got right. Markov(2), Robson Clark(2), Minion #7(18 1/2), Pete Bennetto(19 1/2), Yolanda Dorrington(19 1/2), Frosh One(19 1/2) and Malcom McNeil(20 1/2).
