To the uneducated (stupid) I'll explain how to do it.
The first person (moi) asks a question. Can be about anything. (General knowledge trivia. Nothing stupid like "How many pimples do I have on my butt.") Thank you.
The first person to submit a correct and appropriate response gets the "baton".
He/she then asks the next question, and needs to stick around until the next person gets the answer, thus the baton is passed once again.
The person asking the question should honestly know this information. You should not do an obscure search on the internet for your question and answer. The person/s wanting to answer may use any research materials they may/may not have at their disposal.
Ok, enough blather. Here's the first question.

What is the mean distance from the earth to the moon? In the thousand is fine.

BOO YA!

How many pimples does LoB have on his butt? Okay, first off, I hope the answer is zero because that is kinda raunchy- but really, the question is:

What is the barometric pressure in Albany, NY?

I was looking for atmospheric pressure- sorry. Oh well, yes, Wingz did get it.

I was looking for 1020.1 but got my terms screwed up.
