Welcome to this Friday's round-up of the week's top questions.
We started off the week with a topical question. alexa_brock_82 wanted to know why, if
the Chilean miners are trapped 700 metres underground, will it take months to free them. She suggested you could drill to
that depth in less than a month. Find out what Last Worders had to say on the
limiting logistics of the rescue attempt here: http://bit.ly/bihGDX?
My particular favourite this week was Asxz's intriguing question about sending computer images straight
to the brain, bypassing the eyes. Read my musings and those of other Last
Worders here: http://bit.ly/9bGwWv?
This week's unsolved mystery is the reason for BlueBasilisk's fish changing colour
after they were transferred from an outdoor pond to an indoor tank. The once
brown fish turned pale gold, much to BlueBasilisk's bemusement. Have you seen the same thing? Can you explain
it? Visit the Last Word and tell us what you think: http://bit.ly/aArgbt?
Today's question comes from Lana, who wonders why really hot things can sometimes feel cold. Is
it your skin getting confused? At what temperature does it happen? Pipe up and
tell us your thoughts here: http://bit.ly/dczKFF
Have a great weekend,
