Anyway, have at it!

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:27 PM

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 12:28 PM

Apogee? Damn you Blade!

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:31 PM

No, Blade.

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:32 PM

Apoapsis Altitude?

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 12:33 PM

A lunar orbit that is farthest from the moon?

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:33 PM

Or Apocynthion?

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:34 PM

No Blade, you are very close and on the right track though.

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:34 PM

Apolune

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 12:34 PM

apex?

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:36 PM

Blade, you are correct on apolune. Very well done. That was a tough one.

Dolas lead is cut to 22-14.

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:38 PM

C'mon DH's, we have to close this gap!

List one of the three original Latin forms of the Occam's Razor's principle: "Entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily."

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:40 PM

"Pluralitas non est ponenda sine neccesitate"

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:41 PM

Correct Marmel...

DH's are down 23-14.

McSweeny · 03-06-2003, 12:43 PM

i belive you mean:

DH's are down 24-14

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:44 PM

What date was Saturday mail eliminated by Canada Post?

McSweeny · 03-06-2003, 12:45 PM

February 1, 1969

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:47 PM

Correct, McSweeny.

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:49 PM

Dola leads 25-14!

McSweeny · 03-06-2003, 12:49 PM

25-14 dolamites in the lead

Don McLean wrote a song about painter Vincent Van Goug, what was the name of that song?

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 12:50 PM

American Pie?

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:50 PM

Vincent

McSweeny · 03-06-2003, 12:51 PM

close but no cigar my alien friend

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:51 PM

Vincent?

McSweeny · 03-06-2003, 12:51 PM

Blade is correct

25-15 dolamites

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 12:52 PM

Vincent.

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 12:52 PM

Damn!

Blade · 03-06-2003, 12:57 PM

What engine powered the North American F-86D Sabre Jet Fighter in 1953?

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 12:59 PM

General Electric J47-GE-13 turbojet engine with 2,681 kg (5,910 lb) of thrust

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 01:00 PM

No, that was the 1948 one.

1953 used this engine:

G.E. J47-GE-17 turbojet engine

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:00 PM

Well, the source I found said 3026kg of thrust, but the engine type is correct...

26-15 dolamites

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:01 PM

The J47-GE-17, that is...

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 01:05 PM

I like space/physics questions, so try this one:

The reflecting power of a planet or satellite, expressed as a ratio of reflected light to the total amount falling on the surface, is called the what?

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:05 PM

albedo

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 01:06 PM

shit, that was fast. did you know that, or did you look it up blade?

26-16, Dolas!

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:09 PM

Can't lie, looked it up...

What is the difference in the composition of low tar cigarettes and normal cigarettes?

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 01:10 PM

Less tar.

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 01:11 PM

Low tar cigarettes have holes in the filter so that when someone puffs on one of these cigarettes they breathe in more air than someone smoking a normal cigarette with no holes or smaller holes in the filter. 10-15mg of tar is breathed in with a normal cigarette compared to 5mg of tar breathed in with low tar cigarettes.

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:12 PM

Sorry...may need to rephrase the question...it is possible to take in the same amount of tar with a low tar cigarette as a normal cigarette...why do low tar cigarettes generally allow a person to take in less tar?

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:12 PM

And Marmel is correct! I think we may be searching the same sources!

Kodos · 03-06-2003, 01:12 PM

The difference is almost completely in the filter

Marmel · 03-06-2003, 01:13 PM

27-16 dolas.

Time for a change in sources.

Be back with a question shortly.

Blade · 03-06-2003, 01:13 PM

27 - 16 Dolas.

Where the heck are all the DH's anyway?
