Just as I suspected, everyone got Blue last (iow, by process of elimination only).


Spoiler Alert (but, hell, it's 9:30 EDT so if you haven't done it by now ...):
Does ANYONE!!! think of a spiral when they see a Sunflower?!?
Maybe it is but I think of its seeds as being more in concentric circles if I think of them at all.
And while Cyclones and Snails are OK examples, only some galaxies are spiral while
others aren't even close.

So that's 2-1/2 out of 4 ... at best!

I wish. If I had, I'd want a free Hasselblad in lieu of payment.
