** Game 3, Round 9 - Science - 6-10 Servings a Day
We give a list of varieties; you name the fruit or vegetable
group we are talking about. For example, if we said "Spartan,
Honey Crisp, and Empire", the answer would be apple.
3. Orinoco, Red, Lady Finger, Sucrier, Cavendish, Mysore.
4. Rock, Sour, Black, Fire, Japanese.
5. Damask, Victoria, Agen, Burbank, Stanley, Yellowgage, Serbian.
8. Comice, Asian, Rocha, Red Bartlett.

** Game 3, Round 10 - Challenge - Triple Threat
* A. To Boldly Go Beyond Sci-Fi Trilogies
A1. The last book in this Douglas Adams series was subtitled "The
fifth book in the increasing inaccurately named Hitchhikers
Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy". Name *either* the 4th or
the 5th book.
A2. The original books of this Hugo-winning "trilogy" were
published from 1951 to 1953. Additions from 1982 to 1993,
such as "<answer A2>'s Edge" and "Prelude to <answer A2>",
pushed the total to 7 books. Name the series.
* B. Three Fundamental Groups
Many particles in physics are composed of fundamental particles.
These fundamental particles are in turn classified into three
groups, and those are what we're asking about here.
B1. The fundamental particles that form matter fall into two
types of fermions. Name either type.
B2. The third group of fundamental particles are force carriers
that are involved in the transition, conversion, and transfer
of energy. They are not fermions; what are they?
* C. Three? Now That's a Big Country
Due to the direct possession of islands and/or dependent
territories, some countries span multiple continents -- at
least for suitable definitions of "continent".
C1. The possession of the "Near Islands" in Asia (the largest
being Attu) means that this country has direct territory
in three continents. Name the country.
C2. Although there is no agreement on the "continental" border,
this country says that Curaçao and Aruba are in South
America, and therefore it spans three continents. Name the
country.
* D. Captain Cook's Three Voyages
D2. During his third voyage Cook visited what is now British
Columbia. What year was that, within 10?
* F. One-in-Three Chance out of Five
F1. Only 5 boxers ever beat Muhammad Ali in a bout. Two were
Joe Frazier and Larry Holmes. Name any one of the others.
F2. The Green Bay Packers and the Miami Dolphins were the first
two teams to win more than one Super Bowl. Name *any one
of the next three* to do so. (City or team name.)
These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2012-05-14,
and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
by members of What She Said and/or of Smith & Guessin', but have
been reformatted and may have been retyped and/or edited by me.
I will reveal the correct answers in about 3 days.

Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".
