SPRING BREAK '98 • • This was quite an exciting week in the quiz depot here at the ErIxla Web site www.bianchi-rossi.com Gordonian. "Why?", you ask. Because we actually provoked quiz responses from a half-dozen eordonlaes. All of you non-responders should kneel down in awe whenever you see any of these pseudo geniuses around campus or town. I'll be the first to point out that this was by far our most difficult quiz (not to belittle previous champions of knowledge) consisting of 75 total possible points. I guess this lust goes to show that you people won't lift a finger unless you're really challenged. OK, we can accommodate that.
