unfair

I sent the correct answer way before the closing of contest but I didn't receive any feedback from LJ. Just because I am from Romania I am not permitted to benefit of free subscription?

No letters today

On March 13th, 2009 Carlie Fairchild says:

No letters in today's video. Friday's video only tells you how to and where to submit your unscrambled letters from Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday videos.

Best of luck!

too difficult!

On March 11th, 2009 Barton L. Phillips (not verified) says:

I already subscribe to the magazine which only makes me send money once a year. I'm too old and my time is too precious to play games all week. I like Linux Journal a lot (that's why I subscribe to the mag.) but I don't watch the videos very much -- I would rather have the information in writing. Thanks anyway.

GMT

On March 9th, 2009 Carlie Fairchild says:

For those of you who prefer to follow GMT vs. the U.S.'s often confusing "daylight vs. standard" time, the contest ends at 03:59:59 GMT March 14, 2009.
