	Thanks for the publish, Sporcle (or should I say "Thumbs Up"?). This was a pretty tough one to make and I'm not really happy with a couple of clues, so I appreciate making the grade!

	Some really tough words, but awesome to have a really challenging word ladder. Hats off to anyone that knew what an "ogee" was prior to taking the quiz.

	Nice. I missed first and last (but ok between). DOH!

	Siskel would be pissed he didn't make Sporcle!

	Love the subject of this quiz. Follow him on Twitter! But I didn't like the transition at the top of the second column.

	Ogee? Nuts!

	I have to remember to wear my glasses while taking these quizzes. I was reading Zambesi as Zamboni and kept wondering how the hell does an ice making machine fit in here?

	Well, this is my lowest-rated quiz ever, and my other published Word Ladder is also in my bottom five - so that tells me something - "Caramba Stop Making Word Ladders!" Funny thing is, they were both really highly rated before they were published...

	Too many obscure references and "iffy" definitions for my taste.

	McBeergio: I knew what an 'ogee' was but only from years of doing crossword puzzles in my daily paper. It's one of those crossword-words, it exist in x-words but I've never heard anyone actually use it in a sentence.

	Ogee! Go crossword-doers!

	@caramba: Going through the same thing last couple of days with my latest game. There's nothing wrong with this game. Maybe people downvote because it is too hard for them? Anyway, this game's rating just went up...

	RIP Roger Ebert. I grew up watching him and Gene Siskel review movies, and it was sad to see them both go.
