Most if not all got this correct. I believe the QF may have helped and could imagine many people not clearing the points OtB.
I was in Vegas at the time of posting and normally when in Vegas I don't have time to be posting bg problems but I happened into another bg player and in posting this problem was able to win a bet. Many of you mentioned the oddity of "Where's the bear?" Well, the *bear* replied. The bet was basically whether or not in posting a simple bg problem I could get Mary to reply without specifically calling her out in the Subject line. (No Mary, you don't get 10%)
Would she have replied if it had said "Bearing in Problem"? The world will never know.
