Who is Alexander Hamilton?

You are correct, sir. The board is yours.

.38supersigThis item, designed by Lockheed for nuclear submarines, is almost identical to one that was made ~5,000 years ago.
September 25, 2019, 04:27 PM
.38supersigLockheed designed the item in question for use in circulating coolant without turbulence.
I don't think they had the same idea around 3,000BC.

kkinaWhat is an Archimedes' screw?
September 25, 2019, 07:32 PM
.38supersigOoo. Close.
It is worth mentioning that Lockheed brought theirs to fruition without knowledge of its predecessor.
It was many years later that one of the engineers was touring the museum and instantly recognized the unknown relic.

.38supersigWe would have accepted either a lobed disc or a trilobed disc:
Here it is as being displayed at the first wing of the Egyptian Museum located in Cairo. I don't think they had nuclear submarines back then, but we are also told they didn't have hubs, axles, etc...

.38supersigChick-fil-A celebrates Cow Appreciation Day annually.
The first live cow used on location for Cow Appreciation Day made his appearance a few years back.
We are looking for either the cow's name or the location that he appeared.

I initially thought the correct answer might be "propeller", but didn't think it was 5,000 years old. I guess they don't know what that disc was, or who could have possibly made it. Ancient advanced civilization or alien visitation time.

.38supersig^^^ Yeah, I don't know what is more interesting: That it can circulate fluid without turbulence or cavitation, or that it wasn't lost or damaged. For the record, I would have broken it in about 8 minutes.

Who was Freedom?

.38supersigThis cow was in Athens, Georgia for Cow Appreciation day of 2010 (not sure about Freedom's debut).

September 27, 2019, 07:28 PM
.38supersigHis name was Max. He was a sweet cow. He would escape once a week and find himself in my front yard somehow. It took a while for me to figure out why the bird feeder was empty every morning. A squirrel has nothing on this guy:

Who was Sgt. Reckless, formerly known as 'Ah Chim Hai'?

.38supersigYes!
I was almost running out of stuff. Reckless was a good story. Another good read is that of Wojtek. Making my questions about a cow, a horse, and a bear.
