While we are all anxiously awaiting the next INEPTT Raffles, June for Chris's top and July for Alan's top,
I thought I would challenge some of you folks with a quiz to ease the wait.
The INEPTT Quiz
The rules -
1. No Member of the INEPTT Committee, NOT EVEN the honored members, may participate; nor may
they provide clues in any way, shape, or form to anyone.
2. RotatED, ProudMom and Angelob may NOT participate or allow themselves to be bribed in pm's.
(I think I may have slipped up and possibly mentioned some of the quiz answers to them in
conversation! ???)
2.a. Forbidden to play - Prohibido jugar - Vietato giocare - Interdit de jouer - Forbidden to play
Jim, ta0, Maurizio, Pulp, Chris, Walter, Alan, Eric, RotatED, ProudMom, Angelob.
3. ONLY THOSE WHO HAVE PURCHASED TICKET(S) IN A PAST INEPTT RAFFLE/TOMBOLA/RIFA
ARE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE, except for those excluded in rule 1, 2 and 2a above.

If I missed someone eligible on this list please let me know.
4. Only 1 (one) entry per contestant is allowed.
5. The First eligible member to answer all 3 questions correctly by 8:00pm ET, 23 May wins the prize.
6. Do not post your answers here, PM me your answers.
(You really don't want to give your competitors any clues! :-X)
7. In the event there is no winner, I keep the prize.
The Lead in:
The "seed" (idea) leading to the creation of INEPTT was casually mentioned to all of us in a member's posting. Out of that "seed", out of that vision, that dream, INEPTT was born. :)
The questions:
Q1. What member planted that "seed" (idea)?
Q2. In what posting was it first mentioned? (include the link).
Q3. On what date, and at what time, was it first mentioned?
The quiz is open starting now! (ends 8:00pm ET, 23 May).
Good luck!
The prize - An Orange, Holo Trompo (Mexican), 1st Generation Turbo Top.

DONE! FINISHED! QUIZ IS OVER!
WE HAVE A WINNER!
CONGRATULATIONS POPTOP YOU ARE THE WINNER!!!!
PM me your shipping address and I'll get that "REALLY HOT TOP" out to you tomorrow.

Thanks Larry!
You forgot to tell 'em the critical search term: International toy boy!
I'd like to donate the REALLY HOT TOP to the next INEPTT raffle. Extra goodies for a 2nd (and 3rd?) place make the raffles even more fun!
Cheers and thanks for your vision and great effort organizing our spinning friends the world over.

poptop! Thank you for your generosity! :)
On Behalf of the INEPTT Committee we accept.
This "Really HOT TOP" is destined to be an additional prize in Raffle/ Tombola #3! ;D
Our INEPTT Treasurer mentioned in the 2nd Raffle /Tombola Announcement http://www.ta0.com/forum/index.php?topic=1467.msg15526#msg15526 (http://www.ta0.com/forum/index.php?topic=1467.msg15526#msg15526)
We are also looking into having extra prizes so there are more winners (to be confirmed).
We (The INEPTT Committee) can certainly confirm that there will be additional prizes in the coming Raffles!

" who was the duncan demonstrator whose anagram name is : Really Kyhr ? "
Actually, that was not difficult, even if you did not know the demonstrator. However, I was confused when the first name did not match the last name I found on Bob Rule's site. Then I realized he had brothers who also threw tops! This is brother Tim:

Is he doing rock the baby with the top vertically? :o ???
Go to Bob's site (mryoyo.com) to see another great photo of Harry with a top, the third Kelly brother, Quentin (also with a top), and a bunch of other Duncan demonstrators: Players from the 50's and 60's (http://www.mryoyo.com/Players/ArchiveListing.html)
