Beats me, but at least some people can count. I am fully aware there were not ten there, but paying attention to what one reads before posting is exactly my point.
I always say, there's three kinds of people in this world; those that count and those that don't count.

Well, Gore did some important legislation (cf. the Gore Bill in 1991) to fund the development of higher speed networks for the Internet to run over. More like funding highways rather than inventing the car.

I guess I'll spell it out: we were talking about Age. Dale being 104 and all that. I listed seven things
and said there were ten. With age so goes the mental ability. Counting, etc. Only listing seven but
saying there were ten was a poke at myself at getting Old. That's all._________________________

Loc: Netherlands, the Haguetwosleepy, you're awaking sleeping dogs. I'd already forgotten that it was you who spread false rumour. Anyways, you're the winner for honesty.

9. crank to turn over the engine. it was done right-handed. my dad broke his arm when he was young cranking his brother's car.
10. train
Even I, at a sprightly 31, knew these. However, I'm not sure question 9 has been completely answered. Nothing in my envisioning (or quick g-search) reveals why it couldn't be done left handed...
