Eddie you got 4 of 10. At 40% we are going to have to send you to summer school! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img] Make it last a little longer and not tell you which ones were right and wrong. Remember that #5 is a 3 part question.

ooohhh. And Herm beats out Eddie with 6 1/3. You get a third for the Gaboon. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

And actually Cibophobia I believe is the fear of FOOD. Not sure though.

6. Diamondback....eastern?
7. Cottonmouth....they are huge and scary...even if they aren't they get my vote.....
8. My friends Burm......dunno
9. Cobra of some kind

Let me give this a try.

1. Black Mamba
2. Reticulated Python
3. Anaconda
4. King Cobra
5a. Gaboon Viper
b. Eastern Diamondback
c. Bushmaster
6. Eastern Diamondback
7. Eastern Diamondback
8. Eastern Indigo
9. I tried to break this down and the best I can come up with is some kind of water snake. I broke down the Latin terms and they mean roughly little snake and fish. I will continue to try to find this one.
10. Ophiciophobia is the fear of snakes.

Thanks for posting this, I learned a lot looking this stuff up! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

By the way...

I don't think &quot;Ophidiophage&quot; is a real word, but the latin root &quot;Ophid&quot; pertains to snakes and &quot;Phage&quot; is a clasification of bacteria. Hense, I just put it together.
