Thank you @pgn 

Pleased you find the questions "interesting" and know the answer to the "muscle" question.

 

Thank you @Cleoriff 

I`m so pleased you think it is a "nice quiz" and "Best one to date".

 

I hope our other regular quizzers will agree and they and maybe others, including new members, will have a go at this WRQ.
