That one tripped me up. How many animal members...I was thinking half the total (for the male animals). The Moses/Noah thing didn't even register.

meat - You answered [ flesh]
A butcher's clerk weighs meat, how else does he know what to charge?! (The butcher only cuts it, eh?) Remember the instructions? MOST, (not all), answers are numeric, this one isn't.
You got this one wrong!

No, I got it right. I was just wondering. Would "raw meat" be wrong, or "steak", or even "MEAT!". It looked like it was "m..e...a...t" sensitive.

Yea, that one could be argued. I mean, the doctor didn't say you had to take the first pill right when he gave them to you, did he? Factor in opening the bottle, getting a glass of water, swallow time. Yea, that could be 1 minute. Times 3, that's 63 minutes!!

Anyways, I got it right.

I know that; I tried it with "flesh" (and also with "beef") to see if that was the case, and that's the answer I got.
