Aggressive Whiny Report, May '07

I KNOW you were wondering what the current sitch was with Carla, my token aggressive whiny for not one but two semesters, and I KNOW you'll be quite surprised at the outcome.

Seriously, you should probably sit down.

I thought it would be fun to do this post as a quiz, in keeping with final exam season here. So put on your thinking caps! (Disclaimer: while I would love to take the time to make this all interactive, alas it is not to be... To check your answers, go here. No cheating! Wait til you're done!)
