Sir you might be the one to ask these simple questions of. In my news and Politics column, before the hating began a couple of days ago, I asked some serious but simple research questions. I'll give you 10 clicks for full points.
Whose name is on the Screenplay of the first "Invisible Man" movie?
Does this name jive with the name of the person who commanded The US Navy trainning fleet in the WW2?
I wish to know if this person whom I met 35 years ago was BSing me. He claimed to be the man who's name I've forgoten but would fit in the above slot. Please, can you help?
