She then proceeds to count them in order around the circle.  Unfortunately, she loses track of where she started before she finishes counting.  But she realizes that she can still figure out how many turtles are in the circle by noticing that the sixth turtle is directly opposite the 17th turtle.  How many Ninja turtles are in the circle?<BR>\n" );
