The unit of laughter sounds intriguing, and the interlocking pebbles sound
strange enough to be true.

6 and 19 please.

Bill, my votes are 1&2l

Wayne

[Tony Abell]

They were 1 and 2 the first time around. Since there are only 20 choices, I'm
going to assume you still mean 1 and 2.

I should have been clearer on that. The messges were on the Dixonary group at Google Groups, but were not on Tapcis.com even though some hours had elapsed after their timestamp. The only one I'm absolutely positive was posted via the internet directly to Google was mine. I can't really be sure how the others got there.
