So you think you're smarter than a fifth grader!

Be the first to answer the following 10 questions and receive a PCT-branded gift. Only answers provided by sending me a private message will be considered (i.e., don't post them here).

Rearrange the following letters into a word that means:

 

1) The study of inland waters        milyologn

 

2) One of seven        xrorcuh

 

3) X + Y = XY      rhidby

 

4) Hawk            treelks

 

5) Water Clarity    cescih kisd

 

5) Bonus Point: what is the term for rearranging letters to make new words (in this case nonsense words)?

 

6) Where is the "bluegill pond” in the interdam reach?

 

7) What do the letters PCDCC stand for?

 

8) Who was named the PCT Volunteer of the Year for 2010?

 

9) What is the chemical formula for methyl mercury?

 

10) What is the latest watershed to be given wild trout status?

Note: at least one of the questions/answers has nothing much to do with Putah Creek. Please feel free to use any reference material you find useful. Answers must be received by January 5. I will consider a less-than-perfect score, based on the worthiness of the guesses.

Good Luck! And Happy New Year!

Congratulations Blackcloud! You are definitely smarter than a 5th grader, although your spelling needs some work. Here are James winning answers:

1- limnology
2-horcrux
3-hybrid
4-kestral
5-secchi disk
5-anagram
6-Between access 4 and 5
7-Putah Creek Discovery corridor Cppoerative
8 Alistar Rimmer
9 H3C-Hg+x-
10-Stoney Creek and Lower Honeymoon Lake

MX19 was right in there with 7 correct.

The next round will be much tougher!
