Put on your thinking caps! It's question and answer time.

[[...]]

This should be lots of fun, and hopefully, lets us forget about the benzo bully for awhile...I hope that I am not starting too many threads on the off-topic forum, if I am , please let me know. I do this because it keeps my mind occupied, and during benzo withdrawals, that is a good thing.

 

 

I will start out by asking a question. My question is: How many members are there in the US House Of Representatives?

 

The first one to respond, will answer that question, and in turn will ask a question, so on and so forth.

[Guest [Si...]]

435

[[...]]

S#, You are correct!

 

Your turn to ask a question.

[Guest [Si...]]

How fast is the speed of light?

[[...]]

186,000 miles a second.  I will wait to ask a question, hopefully someone else will jump in and ask one.

 

This could be lot of fun when more people get involved.

[Guest [Si...]]

I like answering these questions. Who would have thought of this lol 

 

You have to keep the thread going. Ask a question.

There is a slight wobble to the earth, who discovered this, and what is that wobble called?.

[[Cr...]]

What can you put into a barrel that will make it weigh less and light up the inside?

You must be interested in Astronomy.......The Chandler Wobble, It could become the next dance craze!

[[Cr...]]

Are there any rules regarding how long the person who posed the question can give other people to answer it?  It isn't fire, but I don't know if I should give the answer just yet until other people have had the chance to chime in.

[[...]]

Crono, lets give S# a chance to answer. No rules yet, I just thought this up this afternoon.We will just have to wing it for awhile.

 

This can turn into a lot of fun. There can be as many questions to ask,  as there are stars in the sky!

 

I didn't think the Chandler Wobble question would be that easy, but then again, you have an above average mind.

These are some tough questions guys.  I'll ask an easier one:

 

How many oceans are there on earth?

 

Sara

[[...]]

Sara, would the answer be 4?

[[Cr...]]

No fair Miss Saraann    Thinking you can jump over the difficult questions so you can have the chance to pose one yourself! Hehe, well that is okay.  I will try to answer it.  If my math is right... and I take the atomic mass of water and carbon and multiply it by pi, and take into account the various degrees in the latitudes and longitudes of the planet.... I reach a designated ocean # of 4?

 

Oh and the answer to my question:  What can you put into a barrel that will make it weigh less and light up the inside?   A hole.  

 

I tried to think of a question that couldn't be googled    Google is a cheat for direct informative questions.  Maybe the people who choose to participate in this should vow to use their own knowledge?  

 

Edit: sorry pj! Didn't see that you answered that ocean question.
