Winner of the Best Question Contest

And the winner of the book "Foreign Tongue" for the Best Question is Lee with the "Do I really have to wear a Speedo?" question (because I get it a lot and it really is important to have the right bathing suit in Paris pools).

Runner up is Picos, with the "French Ending" question (anyone who can add their two centimes to mine are welcome). . thanks to everyone who participated!
