Dear Friends,

Answers to the Final Questions on Day 2 (24th March, 2008 ) are:

1. A beautiful Gemstone Ganesha painting was a surprise gift for the contest "who is my role model?" and the winner was "Vidya24".

2. 3rd September 2007 was the day on which IL crossed 10,000 members.

Note: 14th July 2007 / 15th July 2007 are also considered as right answers.

Here is our explanation for choosing ONLY the above dates as right answers:

- Many have referred to this thread started by Shanvy - http://www.indusladies.com/forums/il-ite-milestones/11610-hip-hip-hurray-il-reaching.html - YES, 3rd Sep 2007 is the actual day on which IL hit 10,000 members.

- Some have referred to this thread started by Induslady -
http://www.indusladies.com/forums/t...-community/9668-help-us-become-100-000-a.html - There is a technical error that happened with the 1st post's date in this thread. It is showing July because, this post was drafted within a private forum a couple of months back(in July 2007) before hitting the 10,000 mark. It was then moved to the public forum on hitting it (on 3rd Sep 2007). But unfortunately, the system has picked up the drafted date for the post. Since we noticed it only after a few contestants has referred this thread, we give away this also as the right answer.

Note: The below are not considered as right answers:

A few of you have referred the following:

http://www.indusladies.com/forums/announcements/11724-towards-100-000-member-community.html and given the dates as 4th Sep 2007 / 5th Sep 2007

http://www.indusladies.com/forums/i...sladies-community-bulletin-7th-september.html and given the dates as 6th Sep 2007 / 7th Sep 2007

Sorry!! No where in the above links we have said that particular day we hit 10,000 members. These threads actually served as "teasers" for this contest question.

The name of the finalists who qualify for Day 3 are listed in this post.

Thank you, Good Luck!
