[Gokul43201]

Check, it's now your turn to ask a "who is ..." question

 

[check]

Oh is that how this works?

Ok... HMMM...

Who is...

Bronson Pinchot?

No googling!

Why'd I have to pick such a lame person? lol

 

[Gokul43201]

Bronson Pinchot is an actor. Are you looking for something more specific...I really don't know anything more than that.

 

[Math Is Hard]

OK, Gokul, you started it. Now you have to ask a "who is" question!

 

[Gokul43201]

Who is a famous mystical seer named after the Virgin Mary ?

 

[check]

Pinchot played Balki on Perfect Strangers. Wasn't that the best show ever? lol

 

[Math Is Hard]

Would this be Maria Esperanza (from South America, I think?)

Who is the host of the TV show "Crossing Over"?

[Gokul43201]

Who the the bassist for Green Day?

No idea about this (don't even know the names of the vocalist and lead player), but I had Nostradamus in mind, for my question.

MiH, are you losing touch with your Latin ?

(Nevertheless, Maria Esperanza works too)

 

[check]

ok, It's Mike Dirnt. That was a tough one.
I'll pick an easier one for us science folks:
Who was Charles Lyell?

 

[Jeebus]

Wasn't he a friend of Darwin?

 

[selfAdjoint]

Geologist.

 

[check]

jeebus, close, he is definitely tied to Darwin.

selfAdjoint, I guess that's correct. He's generally regarded as the father of geology.

When Darwin first set sail on his now famous voyage on the Beagle, he got sea sick fairly quickly. The only thing he could do to feel better was to lay down. Since he spend so much time in bed, all he could do was read. He read 'The Principles of Geology' by Lyell during this time, which sparked his interest in the dynamics of the Earth and living things on it.

ok self, u go.

 

[Janitor]

Who is John Gault?

 

[Math Is Hard]

MiH, are you losing touch with your Latin ?

[Math Is Hard]

Oh, and John Gault was in Atlas Shrugged (Ayn Rand). I think that's the right novel. Been awhile.

Who is Wilford Brimley?

 

[Zantra]

wilford brimley used to be the pitchman for quaker oatmeal, but he's done various things like life insurance... Done secondary parts in films like "the firm". Big movies were cocoon and cocoon 2. And I think he had a tv show called "our house" way back when. That's as far as I recall...if he did more it was before my time...

 

[Gokul43201]

Zantra, your question...

 

[Math Is Hard]

Perfect! Wasn't he great in The Firm?! So weird to see the oatmeal man being a SINISTER character!

OK, Zantra, your turn to ask a "Who Is?" question.
