    Not big, "just" a few, I would think.

    I've got to admit, I'm starting to wonder, is Quora the inverse of Mensa? Not the spelling, the members.

    Every single question that @webmost posts looks like a troll question. I really think that Quora is just a site that lets young people troll their elders.

    @ScotchnSmoke sux lots of large wéiners. And tons of small ones.

    Doesn't everyone worry about islands tipping over. The sad part is that enough people thought he was legislator material. Where was this dolt elected from?

    Hard to imagine how to pump more stupid into one question than this:

    That's a pretty great idea; combat rising sea levels by pumping that water into the Sahara and growing food. LOL

    That's right. Cause if you pre-salt your corn, then you won't have to salt your Fritos.

    But the way I read it, he's thinking pump the monsoon across the Himalaya so that he Gobi goes green.
    Or else pump the Nile flood into the Sahara... cause Egypt doesn't need it.
    Or pump a Nawlins hurricane into Arizona.

    There's endless possibilities.

    Course, we'd have to power the pumps courtesy Solyndra, cause we don't want that carbon.
