    Is that a trick question?

    Indeed, as our dear Patsy said, who cares about what you wear to bed or for that matter, what religion you are, what you eat, drink, who you spoke with, how old you are or even the answer I would like to have answered, who put the bop in the bop shebop bop shebop?

    The answer: a lot of people or they wouldn’t be here. Nothing in this or any other community is pure drivel and there is no question that isn’t unimportant to someone.
    The National Enquirer wouldn’t be popular today if someone wasn’t curious and wanted to know whatever.

    In other words, I care!

    Well thank you Bobby - couldn't have put it better meself :p

    The 'only' reason I found this fact interesting, is the sheer amount of rain - here goes …………
    Are you ready Thomas ………………………….. 900 million tons is the answer - how 'bout that o_O
    900 million tons every minute
    I'm beginning to disbelieve this …………… :p

    takes a lot i recon to replace all that evaporation from all the oceans
    and to water all that rice, and those deep dark forest and my little garden.
    Course some of us are flooded right now so appreciated if the charge
    rain-master takes a coffee break or a little break to go out and check all his
    gages.

    There was a question asked in the school to my children which the teacher tried to give a lame answer and my children corrected her. Why is the oceans salty? My children quickly answered because of rain the rain is pure water which dissolves minerals out of the soil as it flows to the ocean only to be recycled again and again. Making the ocean the depository of all minerals over time.
