[Ans] From the late 1920s until the early 1950s, stop signs were not red, but what color?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "From the late 1920s until the early 1950s, stop signs were not red, but what color?"



Yes, yellow was the standard color for stop signs for nearly 30 years. In fact, the red stop sign has only been the standard for the last 60 years. Before then, the octagonal traffic sign was yellow, with the word STOP in black letters. It wasn’t until 1954 that the stop sign became the bright red color, adorned with white letters that we now know today. This change also served to distinguish the regulatory stop sign from yellow warning signs, and also made the color consistent with that of red traffic signal indications, which for decades had used red to signal "stop".

[Answer] 5. Elias Howe and Isaac Singer were responsible for the development of a major appliance in many households today. However, their dispute over who was responsible was ugly. What product did these two men work on in the 1840s and 50s?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. Elias Howe and Isaac Singer were responsible for the development of a major appliance in many households today. However, their dispute over who was responsible was ugly. What product did these two men work on in the 1840s and 50s?"

Howe sued, claiming it violated his patent, and he ultimately won the suit; as a result, Singer had to pay Howe more than one dollar for each machine already produced. Singer's later partnership with Edward Clark led to the development of the first hire-purchase system of goods, where a machine can be leased for a given amount of time until both its cost and interest have been paid off in full.

[Answer] 5. Which member of The Beatles made the controversial statement "We're more popular than Jesus now"?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. Which member of The Beatles made the controversial statement "We're more popular than Jesus now"?"



...1. Paul McCartney 2. Ringo Starr 3. George Harrison 4. John Lennon John made the statement in March 1966 in an interview that was printed in the "Evening Standard". The statement was a small part of a large article and in its full context it read: "Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that; I'm right and I will be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first - rock 'n' roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me." The remark passed virtually unnoticed in the UK. However, part of the remark was printed on the cover of the American magazine "Datebook" a few months later. Faced with the choice of reading the whole comment, taking it in context and perhaps engaging in an informed debate, or burning The Beatles' records, banning the playing of their records, issuing death threats and forcing concerts to be banned, the American religious right opted for the latter. It was after this incident that The Beatles decided to stop touring, for a variety of reasons. John always said that he was thankful to Jesus for bringing their touring days to an end, as he was beginning to feel worn down by them.
