Sorry that was a major typo, I meant well*
anthony
So the answer is still D then!?
Writeacher
Yes. The word "good" should be there in place of "well" -- since you're not literally <b>feeling</b> something you can touch.

Writeacher
Nope. A, B, and C are fine. The problem is in D.
anthony
okay I'll let you know if it's right.
anthony
