Thumbs up Free Rice vocabulary game

For each vocabulary word you get right, the Free Rice site will donate 20 grains of rice (and other rations) to hungry people throughout the world through the United Nations.

http://www.freerice.com/

WARNING: This game may make you smarter. It may improve your speaking, writing, thinking, grades, job performance...

(I got up to level 48, but I currently hover around 45)

What? You mean smarter than we already are??? How can that be possible? I think it would be easier just to send the other countries a box of rice.

I started to take the test and within minutes, I donated 540 grains of rice. It's fun ... I just had to quit ... gotta do some actual work, you know.

Wow Princess, I'm impressed. I have a pretty good vocabulary from all my studying but level 48? You are truly a Princess. (I have not made it to level 45 yet, but I'm working on it.)
