Here, on Jim Propp's site, are the questions, the answers, routes for getting from Q to A, and similar puzzles. I think it's much easier if you print it out so you can cross off non-answers (like, e.g., A and B on question 1).

Now that's cool. As well as a waste of an hour on a Friday evening.

Life? I have no life.

Me three. Using an IE clone called MyIE, so I'm probably askin' for trouble, but I've not had problems in the past...

I was just over half way through it when I had to reload the page, and now it isn't working for me either. Did anyone happen to save the text of the quitz? It's torturing me!

Yep. I didn't get to see it at all. I'm just making a comment to get this in my history so I'll remember to try back later...

Ah, finally, it's back up. Solving that was very satisfying.
