Probably the best flash game I have ever played! A friend sent this to me a few weeks ago, and I'm glad to see this reminder. It's even fun to play a second time!

Ok, I just wasted a whole hour with that game, but I like it! Thanks, I think.

I don't have much time for a comment--I have to get back to the "tube" challenge. I'm trying a few things and I managed to waste a Saturday at this.

Really interesting--Thanks, but I gotta go, K T

Good to hear from you Babybear--I was up past 3 a.m. finishing the all the challenges. My wife came down at 2 a.m. and said "are you kidding me!" Ha Ha NOPE! My 7 year old is now doing them--Great tool for him to see how things work in the world.

Happy new year and all the best to you and yours, K T

P.S. Mr T. B. gets a good answer from me--It's is important to have fun as well as to learn--Top Notch, sir.

Hello KT,

Some of these 'silly' games and teasers are very egimacational! See I lerant a rot alreddy!

It is a shame that these 'tools' are often hidden away on somewhere you have to join to use, you know? This tool in particular you can test ideas about linkages and things to see if your ideas will work?

Good on your son as well! I feel sorry for your wife though........I often get so involved on this site I make drinks, coffee mostly, and realise an hour after it was made, I had not drunk it!

Take care and happy new year to you and your family KT!
