I thought you would get 9 and 17 i must admit the first one is a killer you will kick yourself when i tell you it.
P.S.did you get a smiley i group e-mailed it and as your on my list i would like to know if it worked
answer
SilverSolstice Posted Jun 22, 2000
I have no idea what 9 is, and I think I'd have remembered a name like that! When I read 17 the first time, I thought that Sands of Time rang a small bell as being an Asimov book in the Empire series and in the larger continuous Robot-Empire-Foundation series, but as I've never been able to find the Empire books I've never read them, and so I couldn't be sure. And it may be I'm totally wrong now.
I did get the smiley mail, and I went, but I had to put my computer on mute when the hamsterdance song started blaring out!

I will e-mail you the answers two the two questions as it would not be right to put them on here yet.
you would think that a name like that would be easy to remember but no one ever gets it you will kick yourself when you see it.
