Thanks for the messages.  I'll share them both with my students in grade 5 and in grade 2.  BTW - your answer to the riddle, a shadow was correct.  I'm curious to know if it was easy or hard to solve.  Yours already has me thinking.  I'll share it with my students, but knowing kids, they will get it in short order.

Here is another riddle.  The answer is a kind of fruit.  In fact I had it with my lunch.
> In the winter, the dragon curls itself up and lies down;
> In summer the leaves spread open.
> The dragon's whiskers grow upwards.
> But the pearls arrange themselves downwards.

Riddle #7 from the book, Chinese Riddles 1, Overseas Chinese Library, by Linking Publishing. Co. LTD

I hope both Mary and Timothy are having fun learning how to use a modem.  Although I haven't had any formal training on the use of telecommunications, our sysop here has  been very helpful.  Good luck traveling the world via modem.  Hoping to hear from you again.   Tsai Chien,  Jeff
