So, head off and read it, I’ll wait . . . be sure the read the comments too.

Sooooooo . . . that was fun.

BUT . . .  I’ll bet you’ve gotten way harder questions!  Tell me in the comments.

I’ll share my hardest reference question. In the pre-Internet era (all the way back to late 1980), I was asked to find a chart of sheep semen prices over a ten year period.  That was a difficult one at the time.
