    That kind of defeats the whole idea behind Thanks USA, which is learning about US history.  Have fun with it!

    Just wanted to say THANK YOU for turning us on to this game.  We made a family project out of the first phase.  Had help from my Grandkids and even Hubby helped.  Such a good way to REFRESH a mind.  THANKS!

    Actually, this is not the "first phase" of the game. According to the rules, the puzzle is out... the "first phase" is when schools get to enter and the second phase is for us. We didnt identify ourselves as a "school" so i think we are ok.

    Sorry for the confusion.  You are perfectly correct! { Actually, this is not the "first phase" of the game}  We are not schools--We are Individuals!  But I still had a GREAT time playng the game and I  say again to you---" Thank You!!!"
