I presume **SCAdian** meant the answers he’d already provided to DQs 1 through #23, not any additional ones. We’re only entitled to 20 anyway, as we’ve played this game in the past. And I’m still stumped. ---

I’m past stumped and I was a fine art appraiser for 14 years. Curious minds want to know! ---

Looking back, I see where I went wrong. I mistakenly thought when you said “not from Holland” it was in answer to a question about the Lowlands, but this was in fact not the case. My error. So, is it another P, or an R? ---

I wondered why everyone seemed to be forgetting Belgium. 🙂 **Peter Paul Rubens** was born in Germany to Flemish parents, and lived in other countries as well, but spent most of his life in Antwerp. Someone did an out-of-sequence R a few weeks back. I’m torn between J (was really hoping to be the first to get the answer to ‘I’), another P (I have a good one), and S (another good one).

> [@SCAdian](#): > > Oh, what the H… > > I am **J**. > > 'K? Oh. 😃 Good one on Rubens. I was unable to participate in the last round, but looking through the list of DQs, I would have been just as stumped as everybody else. IQs: IQ1: Is your name my name too? IQ2: Years after your war experience, was Gonzo Gates one of your colleagues? IQ3: Do you tell litigants, “Don’t pee on my leg and tell me it’s raining”? ---
