Is Question 1 not Nine? I thought that 12 was only the maximum, and not the most common. You could change the question to, "Three more than the typical number of Jurors in a typical Jury," so the stats don't reset.

Juries can be as small as 6 for petit juries and as many as 32 I believe for grand juries. The vast majority of juries that are used for criminal or civil trials are made up of 12 people. As the question is worded (with the "typical" disclaimer) I believe 12 is the appropriate answer.

15/18. I reckon out-of-US-dwellers should get bonus points for overcoming the fog of information American. (In return, I'm happy to give Americans extra points for Aussie, UK, Canadian and NZ-centric quizzes)

Totally random, but I was literally looking at the tag of one of my baseball hats to buy a new one earlier today and that was my size. That’s how I knew.

50 Ways to Leave Your Lover always left me wanting more because he only names a handful of ways...step out the back, Jack, hope on a bus, Gus, make a new plan, Stan...I know there's more but he definitely doesn't name more than 10 ways. What are the rest????

But he says "there must be 50 ways", so it's speculative. If I say "there must be 10,000 different species of ant" it doesn't mean I can name them all.

New York should be New York City
jmellor13

Level 67
Jul 17, 2021
No, it shouldn't. First of all, the name of the city is "New York," not "New York City." Second, even if you go from New York's western border (say, from Buffalo), it's still much closer to 2,451 than 1,432. Third, it's common knowledge that questions like that use like units. If the question were asking about New York state, it would ask for the distance from New York to California. If you end up in a city, Los Angeles, the presumption is that you're starting in a city, New York. Plus they're the US's two biggest cities, so I don't really see how anyone could misunderstand what the question is asking for.

Answer to most of the above: "A desperate need for the metric system"!

We really should. We'd have to phase it in over time. But Americans are so stubborn. They won't give up the paper dollar bill even though it is impractical to use. The government has been minting dollar coins for like 20 years and nobody wants them. If you switched miles to kilometers, people would throw a fit.

It would be an enormous expense to switch to metric. Imagine all of the road signs that would need to be changed just to change from miles to kilometers. (And I think that paper dollars are much easier to carry than coin dollars.)

Despite the UK switching to metric some time ago, road signs have remained in miles and I can't see that changing
wolfcat95

Yes, America should switch! FlickerP is right that switching need not apply to everything, but as for the expense... How much money did it cost when the US lost that Mars lander because half the calculations were done in metric and half Imperial units? ... and that is far from the only incident. There would be a great deal of money to be saved by using a measurement system that conforms to the rest of the world. The USA is out of step with (literally) 95% of the planet because of ignorance and/or stubbornness.

I think that the units teaspoon (defined as 5 ml) and tablespoon (15 ml) are used all over the western world. So why is it in a US edition?

They're actually very slightly different in the U.S., though both defined in SI units.

Technically, they're all rectangles, but I see your point. I suppose the clue should read "spaces" or something else along non-geometrical lines.
