Free rice
This is for real, and sponsored by some large multinational companies. For every vocabulary word you get right, they will donate 10 grains of rice. The FAQs will tell you more. This is one of the tougher vocabulary tests I've seen (the ones in Reader's Digest are really lame, btw) -- go educate yourself!

I stopped at 520 grains of rice. By the looks of things, it was just a bit over one bowl?
If it means anything, and I'm not sure what, I stayed at the "40" level. Candy, is that good??  LOL

I got up to 45 before I stopped, or I would have been there all day
 . They say most people don't get over 48. Top is 50.

I think the link begins everyone at Candy's high level...you might try clearing that once you get there, and maybe it will give you a lower level to begin with? I just kept my browser open and went back to it from time to time, until the connection dumped
 I was at 2060 grains...(don't hate me) lol until you guys talked about levels, I was trying to get above level 50, wondering if I wasn't clicking fast enough or what! DUH me! I wonder how many grains of rice in a 5 lb bag???!!! Candy that's a kewl site and I thank you again for it. How did you find it?

I was at 2000+ grains too, I think. It didn't occur to me that it would save my level -- sorry!
I found it through the wonders of StumbleUpon , which I highly recommend, with the caveat that you shouldn't start it up if you don't have a lot of time to waste. You can set it to find websites based on your interests, and then just keep clicking and it will turn up all sorts of cool things. If anybody remembers the old days with Netscape's Cool Site of the Day, it's kind of the same deal, to infinity. LOL

when I go there it starts me at the beginning, no level at all, just a dash. the level doesn't show until enough questions have been answered to begin calucating it seems. last time I answered 5 questions before a level was assigned.
anyway, it's fun .

Cool site candybear! I hope you don't mind, but I posted a link to the site on another forum. I gave PC the credit for finding it though.
The highest level I got to was level 40, but mostly I think I stay in the low 30's.
