The first correct answer gets the prize from Oprano.

You're not getting off that easy serge...




1. It does not declare a starting point, nor does it even implicate that its a tree. As far as i construed it, it was a 40 ft. 4X4 post, and the dreaded escargot was placed by you at eye level in a spot 6 feet off the ground when he began his/her ascent up the pole on February 21 [11 days ago] at 12:01 a.m. [the start of a new day].

2. You marked a spot with orange paint 10 feet higher [and named it 10 feet mark] and the mollusk began his ascent. Thus, starting at nite, the creature slid down 2 feet before even beginning the trek up the pole.
