BrainBashers: April 2007 Common Answers Results

Hi,

April 2007 results for BrainBashers Common Answers are now ready. There
were
2,321 valid entries and the winners are shown after the answers. I was
13th.

I cut a swathe through the answers this month by disallowing:

Q4: any answer that didn't end in 5 or 0
Q5: any answer that didn't read the same backwards
Q7: any weight over 200
Q8: any weight over 300

And I was really tempted to Disallow many of Q9, but decided against it.
