Yeah, but they make a profit by doing so. Surely you could just donate to a registered charity instead?

Not as fun as doing little quizzes. And you know exactly what you've contributed.

Ok, have fun then. But don't dress it up by saying you're ending world hunger by doing your little 'fun' quizzes.

Oh bah humbug. Not everyone can be a philanthropist. If a small(ish) profit to a company allows rice to be donated to a third world country then it's not all bad.

Why not?

Smallish? Thousands of dollars a day in profits? And not only that, they're using the plight of starving people to drum up business.
Have your fun playing their 'game', but for crying out loud, don't kid yourself that you're/they're saving anyone's life while you're/they're at it.

Sorry Baz, a wee bit fun. Thought as you was feeling peckish, a little quiz might help? I would of sent some rice.
It was meant to be like you fill the letters in, makes the name of a famous film, a wee hint as well.
Work with me on this one, please?
Oh well.
