    What was the number given to the slaughterhouse in Voneguut's book?

    All 3 of them were charity boys in Dicken's novels
    There once was a scotsman named Drew
    Who put too much wine in his stew
    He felt a bit drunk
    And fell off his bunk
    And landed smack into his shoe

    I give up. I don't know, maybe you just don't want to answer my questions. Any road, three with no reply is plenty:

    What was the answer they needed to give in The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg? Go reform and read it. Here's the link.
