When you click Submit (at the bottom of this web page) it will save your work on the server for me.

You might want to actually write your answers in Word (so you can spell check them) and then cut-and-paste into the boxes. That way, if the computer misplaces your work you can just re-paste the answers or in the worst case, email them to me directly.

DO NOT JUST LOOK FOR THE ANSWERS…YOU’LL MISS LOTS OF IMPORTANT STUFF. THE QUESTIONS ARE JUST TO KEEP YOU “HONEST.”

TAB OR USE THE MOUSE Between the fields....

Answer the questions as best you can. The boxes will expand as you type if you need more space. (Don't worry if it is a one word answer. The box size is standard.)

The "form handler" software doesn't like "blanks."

So, if you don't have an answer, leave the "-" or "NA" or -required- in the box.

Get this right and get (a) more points  (b) candy (c) my being impressed with you.  [FYI no one has even bothered to put in an answer to this question in the past 2 years. It requires thought!]
