Both are streets in Corona, CA.

I don't think that is the answer you are seeking.

 

[DocStram]

Tesota ... Tesota ...... let me think a minute. Ohhh .. I got it! He's the guy who built those really cool cars for Chrysler, right?

 

[DCBluesman]

I thought that was the name of the knock-off car that is being produced in mainland China.

And, Google picked right up on that one!!! [}]

 

[ed4copies]

Wasn't that amazing??????

I saw it too!

WHY?

 

[GaryMGg]

WHY?

'cause they grab all the most important information folks share with Al Gore. []

{insert Grabs head and runs down the street screaming like a maniac icon here }

 

[JDPens]

Hey, isn't it obvious?

Tesota is ****** and Tésota is ******, the same thing, just with an accent. [] [}]

Just thought I might throw that out there.

 

[arioux]

Yea, that's the ticket...........

I once had a Geo Prizm and I think it had a Tesota motor in it

This contest is now closed. We received 49 entries and lots of correct answers which surprised me a little because I thought this was a much more difficult question. Looks like there are a lot of smart pencrafters out there.

I will post the winner tonight about 8 P.M. forum time.

Thanks for playing. I hope everyone is enjoying the challenge!!!

 

[ed4copies]

Hey, Randy!!

Ya gonna post the right answers for those who didn't want to do internet research all day!!!

Heck, one guy admitted to finding MY answer on the internet, why do you suppose he was searching for that term???????[}][}][}]

 

[Randy_]

Yes, Ed. This evening when the winner and the prizes are posted.

Randy you didn't mention how many entries and what percentage was correct.

It is nice to see the participation!

Congrats you guys!

There were 49 entries for this contest. I didn't figure the the % of correct answers; but it was less than on the first question.

 

[Jarheaded]

Sorry Ed, I learned about the wood while serving in Central America with the Corps many years ago. I would have done the research but didn't have to.
Thanks to everyone,
Johnnie
