I was finally going to play this game because I thought I finally knew the answers...noe there's another thing I don't know....Does the quiz end at the end of the 28th or the beginning? Being a natural procrastinator and always looking to make a grand entrance....I thought I had until the end of the 28th, but the answers were posted just after midnight.....I suppose it ended on the 27th for the west coast.

Just checking so I know for the next rare opportunity where I think I have the answers..

"Catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world".

So the 28th ends at the start of the 28th EST.
The 28th ends at the end of the 27th Pacific.
I'm still confused about central time and what I do when daylight savings time ends???

I guess the chance of my getting another quiz right makes it a moot point anyway.
