I find it very hard to concentrate on the quizzes you sent me, as I'm deeply at work. I'm returning home everyday at ~22:00. I also have a family and a small 1 year old child, that needs my attention ;-) I did small part of the test. Do you want me to send you the test as is and we'll take it few questions at a time, or you need it full? Have a nice weekend, Kfir
