L1 : Depends on how you look at it:
1+the his age at death; of birthdays over his lifetime
infinitly many; his birthday still exists after his death
But the answer you are looking for is 1, a man can be born only once

L4 : I think its 1=1 also

L5 : I think the 1898 coin is made up of more precious metals then the 97 coin.

S1 : Sea Food restaurant
S2 : Probably because he isnt dead
S3 : No Idea
S4 : I don't see why not, break the stick in two or if he is true boyscout he should be always prepared and brought along some matches or a lighter
S5 : Nose, Sink Tap, Refrigerator
S6 : See S2 Survivors dont get buried
S7 : I think the question is entered wrong but my answer is "5 Days of the Week"

#5 if you have 1898 silver dollars you would have more $ than if you had 1987 of them

#4 WTF could it be then? one pound of anything is the same as one pound of anything else, unless one is in different gravity than the other.

Now if it was a pound(british currency) worth of feathers or a pound woth of gold i would say feathers

xmodum · 2004-01-23, 10:18 PM

Think very hard for this one it's harder then it looks\/
L4.Which weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of gold?
-The answer is actually feathers.
- One pound of feathers is more than one pound of gold
because the "pound"unit is different. The most commonly used system of weights in the US andGreat Britain is the avoirdupois system,
where 1 pound = 16 ounces. Thisisused for most solid objects, except for precious metals and gems; gold isweighed by a special system, called the troy system,
where one troy pound=12 troy ounces. Where one avoirdupois ounce is 28.35 grams, one troyounceis about 31.10 grams.To convert from avoirdupois pounds to troy pounds, multiply the first by1.2152 to get its equivalent in troy measurement. Therefore, one "pound"offeathers in troy weight is actually 1.2152 pounds (one avoirdupois pound),compared to one troy pound of gold. And the feathers win. Thanks Joni!!

i saw rbster got that one, kinda it is more complicated then the british pound....
