i always think of vegas lol one of my favorite cities in the world : )

but atlantic city doesnt have bunch of casinos also?

It does and it's the East Coast (US) gambling city, but it's probably not as well known as Vegas for gambling. To be honest I didn't even think Monopoly was based on Atlantic City - for some reason I alwasy thought of New York City; but when I googled it Atlantic City came up (although there are obvious alternates fot the game - I have a Chicago version myself).

What day is the last day of the Mayan calendar?
12-21-2012
12-12-2012

Besides being a misconception, the correct question is already in the database: "When does the current cycle of the Mayan calendar end?"

And another misconception:

There are as many colours in a rainbow as there are wavelengths in sunlight, so the true answer is: A rainbow spans a continuous spectrum of colours.

Edit: added another error.

In London, the Royal Opera House, is also known as?
St Paul's
The Roxy
Covent Garden
St Martin's in the Fields

Please remove this question. The Royal Opera House has never been known as Covent Garden. It is in Covent Garden. This is like saying Times Square is also called New York. Nonsense again.

Which is the smallest prime number?

1, 2, 3, 5


The quiz answer is 2, but there is some debate as to whether 1 is prime - after all, it is a number divisible only by 1 and itself; it just doesn't have two factors. Best to remove the 1 option, and all doubt is gone.

Weird, my 5 first hits on Google all say The Stories. Hot chocolate came up 7th although you are right about them, wikipeadia says:

"The song about a black girl and her white boyfriend had been a UK hit for Hot Chocolate earlier that year. Once issued as the Stories' second single, it became a big hit, reaching No. 1 in the United States."
So US heard it first by the Stories but Hot chocolate was first in UK.

What is the greenhouse effect?
The ozon layer gets thinner from CFC pollution and more harmfull rays reach Earth
Sulphiric acid from factories makes acid rain that kills plants
Carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere increases the temperature of the Earth
Radiation leaks make plants mutate and grow bigger than normal

"When certain gasses in the atmosphere trap re-radiated heat" is more accurate as what is described is more the result of the greenhouse effect (and therefore global warming), rather than what it actually is (trapping energy in the atmosphere). Also, ozon, sulphiric and harmfull are spelt wrong.

Who fought the Balrog?
Gandalf the Grey
Gandalf the Brown
Gandalf the Green
Gandalf the White


BRUTAL!!!

Not only does the question not indicate that it's referring to Lord of the Rings, but Gandolf appears in the movies as both Grey AND White.

"Gandalf faced the Balrog at the Bridge of Khazad-dûm. He slew the Balrog but perished himself at the same time — to be sent back as the more powerful Gandalf the White."

So not only do you have to know Gandolf started the movie as Grey, but you also have to know that he didn't turn White until after this battle!
