SE Mind Bender Contest #3

[Edgar]

Here is Mind Bender #3 - it's a little harder this time. You have to answer 3 questions:

1. What are the two woods that this mini-cartridge pen is made from?
2. Who is the maker of this pen? (either his full name or his user ID will do)
3. What is the title of the Library Tutorial written by this IAP member?

Send your 3 answers to iap.puzzles@gmail.com and put "Mind Bender #3" or something to that effect in the subject so I will know which contest you are entering.

If you get all 3 answers correct, you will earn 2 points toward the overall point total of this contest. If you get 1 or 2 answers correct, you will earn 1 point. Everyone earning at least one point will be eligible for an individual prize for this contest (unless you win some other Mind Bender prize.)

A note to the person who made this pen: you may enter this contest and you will earn one point toward the overall contest total if you submit all 3 correct answers; however, your name will not go into the drawing for this individual prize.

This contest will remain open at least 48 hours from the time of this post.

Banter is encouraged, but please do not post any real hints.

Have fun - let me know if you have any questions.

Edgar

We do have one completely correct answer so far (and it's not from the maker of that pen), so it's not impossible. :devil:

Be sure to also check out Bill's tutorial in the library. It's pretty cool.

Thanks for playing
