	could take 4 minutes off the clock

	When I was doing this I thought it was weird that there was both 'books' and 'textbooks', but I guess they are different enough since a lot more people got one than the other.

	It's not traditional to have to do the clues in order.

	Far too much time. You could safely take at least three minutes off, if not four.

	Things in a classroom 15 to 20 years ago. Almost all classrooms now have whiteboards, not chalkboards.

	Did it in 44 seconds - but I spend every day in elementary school! Agree that there are no chalkboards any more.

	@slamb: Ah, those old-tyme Sporcle traditions. My grampa never had to Sporcle in order! Good thing we live in an age of adaptability and flexibility, right?

	I'm a teacher. I have a chalkboard. They definitely still exist.

	60 years ago in Edinburgh I was using a 'Slate' to write on and a satchel instead of a backpack!! How things progress but all the other items are still most recognisable :-)

	Chalkboards do exist and they are often found in a classroom but rarely used anymore. I persist in calling them blackboards.

	@iscah, @ezois: i am a high school teacher, i have a chalkboard in my classroom like @meltha (which i use), but it is greenish, not black. so i had no trouble with that clue. :)

	Way too much time. Shave off a minute or two.

	RonB:	May 14th, 2011 at 22:10 GMT		3 points
	Do these people really feel that unfulfilled if they almost don't run out of time? If it bothers you that much, handicap yourself by starting two minutes later instead of complaining about every quiz!

	i was looking for blackboard, but when i saw RHAKDOCBLA, I saw the black and tried to figure out how i could unscramble the rest. HARD-O-BLACK isn't a word is it? should have spent more time in school and less time on sporcle.

	I think it's very funny that "student" can be scrambled into "dustnet".

	DiegoSanchez:	May 15th, 2011 at 03:21 GMT		-3 points
	Great mixed word! You could possibly add "papel," the Spanish word for paper, as a bonus to the apple clue

	NY_MOB:	May 15th, 2011 at 04:12 GMT		2 points
	@DiegoSanchez: But the quiz is in English. So unscrambling "PPLEA" into something in another language would make no sense.

	mexal:	May 15th, 2011 at 13:26 GMT		0 points
	@RonB the daily dose puzzles are supposed to be quick ... it even says so in the sporcle faq.

	epicirish:	May 16th, 2011 at 18:25 GMT		1 point
	I think two minutes would be good. Also book/textbooks and chalk/chalkboard seem a little redundant.

	nooser_98:	May 19th, 2011 at 22:33 GMT		1 point
	I was confused... Textbooks and books? Aren't they the same thing? Sorry. Just a kid here... I don't get many things... But still... ... ... ?

	nooser_98:	May 19th, 2011 at 22:35 GMT		1 point
	Oh and P.S. @NY_MOB: Sure, it doesn't make sense, but I learned what "papel" meant in sixth grade. BTW.

	Okay, who here guessed Plaster?

	jefe_:	May 23rd, 2011 at 05:01 GMT		3 points
	Hee! It accepts Cheater for Teacher.

	9toes:	May 27th, 2011 at 11:34 GMT		2 points
	@ nooser98 A 'textbook' is always a 'book' but a 'book' is not always a 'textbook'. It could be a 'comic book', an 'accounts book', or a 'novel' etc.. :-)

	i agree with the first comment. gotta make this shorter

	Ridiculously easy for adults. Good for a ten year old maybe. My classroom has no chalk or chalkboards.
