Both answers are incorrect. (Fifty-fifty chance of getting it right now :scratch: )

:go: Got it. Scottish doctor Sir James Black won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988 for his role in developing the beta blocker propranolol, which is used to treat coronary heart disease and hypertension. He shared the Nobel Prize that year with two American researchers, Gertrude Elion and George Hitchings, whose research produced drugs used in the treatment of herpes, leukemia, bacterial and viral infections, and malaria, among other illnesses.

I believe it is your turn, Largefry07.

Hmm, I've seen this on one banner... But I still don't know the answer. Florida?

<A>, California.

(If there's a rule about how often you can post on this topic, please let me know.)

One answer per question I think is the rule. Both are wrong.

One answer per every 24 hours, actually... :rolleyes:

one answer per 24 per question. Why wait 24h if there's a new question?

Anyway, I have no idea of Minesota, I'll say C) Hawaii

Traveller
17-08-2006, 09:38
Well, of course that if there's a new question, you can give an answer and your new 24h begin!
Btw, I guess my arch-adversary will have to give a new question... :rolleyes:

Are you talking about me???:silly:

The correct answer is Mineesota. In fact it has more shoreline than all of the other combined. If you think that doesn't sound right, well I said for the most shoreline and since Mineesota is the land of 10,000 (really it's something 11,000-13,000) the shoreline around each lake adds up.

I believe I have the right to ask a new question since no one got it right. I'll wave that right and open the next question for anyone since I am short on time.

Too bad, Traveller, that you didn't use your chance to answer. It's been a while since I posted a question.

Which of these countries aren't completely in the Balkan peninsula

A)Albania
B)Bulgaria
C)Croatia
D)Bosnia and Herzegovina
E)Serbia
F)Macedonia
G)Greece
H)Montenegro

I didn't understand that "Too bad, Traveller, that you didn't use your chance to answer."

Btw, should I be allowed to give an answer here? Well, anyway, I'm not good on geography, so... :rolleyes:
All, except Croatia?

You have proven your clam that you aren't good in geography.
I didn't understand that "Too bad, Traveller, that you didn't use your chance to answer."
When you said that my answer Hawaii is correct I didn't see that you already had an answer in the previous 24h, so I thought you missed your chance to give the right answer.
EDIT: I rephrased the question so that the list of answers would be shorter.

Traveller

Ok, 24h have passed: C and D?

Xuca
18-08-2006, 20:41
Wrong again. Just to make it easier, and encourage others to try to guess, pick three.

Traveller
18-08-2006, 21:00
Are you completely sure? It's true that I'm not that good on geography, especially since I can't even check the map, but...

Xuca
18-08-2006, 23:15
Yes, I am sure. I could give you further tips, but it would be too easy then...

Oh, damn, why didn't I thought of the Greek islands?! Yeah, stupid me! Anyway, Angry, you forgot to name the other two... :rolleyes: :tongue:
