Random Questions thread
« on: December 19, 2012, 11:22:41 pm »
Hello all:

As its name suggests, this thread is for (bored) people to post their random questions (and answers). Ask away!



Who thought up the useful and time-saving idea of writing 'mole' as 'mol' in chemistry?
How do people paint such straight lines on roads?
Is it possible to cross a dog and a cat (assuming they don't fight)?

"Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive." - Elbert Hubbard

"Any kid will run any errand for you, if you ask at bedtime." - Red Skelton

"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." - Dalai Lama

I love the quotes in your sig :)
