    YOU'RE THE ONE THAT KEPT BLOWING THE CURVE!!!!!????!?!???!
    Oh damn... Sorry dude! We had a guy like that in my 2nd year physics class in High School. Dude was *always* aceing the exam, while the rest of us were lucky to get a 50... The instructor graded on a curve, but it sucked that Lance was always way out there in front, making it harder for the rest of us.
    damn yo beavis!

    If you're sat at home bored, see if you can work out how many triangles there are in
    this drawing!

    First correct answer gets a GOOZ Card!

    You gave it away too soon!

    Here's one that I was the only one to get in all of our high school geometry classes:

    If there are three basket balls sitting on the teacher's desk, in a somewhat triangular arrangement, how many planes are there that all three spheres are tangent to?

    It would help if I knew what most of the words you just posted meant

    They havent posted the actual correct answer yet. That was only one person's input.
    >EDIT- I just checked, the correct answer is available, and that wasnt it!
    Anybody care to guess some more?

    That would be all planes in the entire existing universe...?

    96%. I think a few questions could have been a little clearer such as the 'which tube will have higher water' (how long is the tube after the kink before the outlet), and the liquid cooling one (is the liquid prone to evaporation, what is the thermal conductivity of the table and container)
    The reason air goes into the cylinder was a gotcha.
