Do not read more into it than a question that was not phrased clearly. That is all it is.

You know, I have to find these questions, make a illustration and then present them on a daily basis. Not as easy as to do as you think. You she try to do a few yourself.

BTW - 20% of Poland's population died in WWII, the highest percentage of any nation.

Let's call a spade a spade. You asked a question - re: civilian WWII deaths (even if you improperly worded it) and Antarctica - and received the correct answers to the specific questions as asked.

In post #125, you asked a question. In #128 an answer with precise facts was given. In #140 you stated "You did not answer the question as asked" even though any simpleton could read the facts and was edified by the information. Personally, I thought that you were splitting hairs, but it's not my thread. That said, I didn't know that 'game-show' rules were in effect.

At the end of the day, you set the standard in #140 - answer the question asked. Now you are also bound by your own rule. You are bound to accept the response if it correctly answers the question. You cannot 'excuse' it by saying that you worded the question wrong. In simple words, you cannot suck and blow at the same time.

Despite that, I do wish to thank you for making the effort to ask the questions, find the picture and provide an interesting alternative to reading about some guy having a shitty experience from a BP provider.

He's already admitted a couple of times that he phrased the question improperly.

Now you are hassling him for simply trying to tell us what he really meant to ask. What do you want, his left nut?

In #246, I was responding to his 'snarky' comment to me in post #225. I also thanked him for his efforts. Criticism & praise in one post.

Harper,

Thanks, criticism and praise aside. I am not putting up with you cackling and bickering any longer. I would like you to experience what it is like to find questions , prepare them and answer them. So I suggest you go find 10 interesting questions and post them for the entertainment and challenge of the others. So that you know that it is not so difficult, at at the same time not as easy as you think it is.

This is the trivia thread, you will have to post all further discussion on a separate thread so as not to disrupt the content of the Trivia thread.

False
the Honda 600 was the first Honda car sold in North America. My father was offered the franchise.

The Civic was not the first car sold in Canada by Honda.

Toyota, Datsun and Mazda arrived before Honda. In the early days, these Japanese car manufacturers went to gas station/garages and put a car in the waiting area of the gas station to let the public see their cars. Many of the Japanese car dealers of today grew from these corner garages.

During the civil war there was an unwritten rule that soldiers could not kill a person on the opposing force if they were in mid poop or piss.

On average, it takes 9% of a days labor to buy food. Early in the 20th. century they worked longer hours and almost half the day to make enough to buy food.
