I took the test a second time, and changed eight answers, and got EE 
both times.  Hmmmm...

So, the first time I differed with Dung in 8 answers, the second in 
five -- but included in that number are (maybe) two answers where I 
had agreed with her the first time I took the test and then 
disagreed the second.

Ummm... anybody good at statistics and analysis?

Anne  

P.S. Just saw Richard's post -- you may be right about the time 
turner.  Your reasoning did cross my mind, but I thought I might use 
it right at the moment when I would be thinking "what I really need 
right now is _____________," then go back in time and try to place 
the item just where I would find it the next moment.  It just seemed 
to have potential for flexibility and usefulness, I guess.
