"You Can Answer! You Can Ask!"

Recommended Posts

The object of this thread is to answer a historic question presented by the previous person, then ask a historic question that is to be answered by the subsequent person, who will pose his or her own historic question. In the event the answer to a question is incorrect, the author of that question may (if they so choose) pose the question again, and if need be; again and again, until the accurate answer is given, or they may (if they so choose) give the answer at their own discretion...Since I'm the master of the thread, I will ask and answer my own question, then ask a question.
