    Had google this to check I had not been silly....and I found this amazing fact...
    "Oxygen can be found dissolved in water as O2 molecules. Consequently, the oxygen content of seawater is 85.7%"

    So in the air it is 21%,....so no!! quite the opposite

    Correct GC...so I can go to bed now....Moles is generic answer.

    ..but need to tell you about the naked mole rat (which is a rodent not a mole...but still) it can live in low oxygen/high CO2...it is immune to cancer (no cancer has been detected in NMRs) and does not feel pain.

    They also live eusocially...like ants. With a queen and accessory males...but with loads of worker (small ones for digging tunnels, large ones for defence)

    They are superheros.

    Good night fellow superhoops

    Who was the last player to touch the ball before the final whistle was blown in the 1982 Cup Final?

    ( In the first game, not the replay. )

    The ball was passed to Fenwick but the whistle blew before the ball reached him.

    A frayed knot.

    In fact, my apologies. That was a bit of a crap question. Here's another...

    Which national flag has the most stars on it?

    It's not the USA Beth.

    The FA Cup answer was Ian Gillard.

    Now I am surprised....because I got asked this once in a quiz...and trying to be ultra clever and thinking it was a trick...I said Brazil...because their flag shows the night sky on a globe...and I got it wrong....it was USA (that is my memory of it)...so have googled...and google says USA (so does the quiz site favourite of all good quizzers Sporcle).....so what trick am I missing....


    Oft to see the 2nd half now..when Adam Jones goes off and we lose the test
    going off

    I thought that to Beth. Sadly I was misinformed, my apologies. You are of course correct. <ok>
