There's something in the air...

As I've said before, a game of Trivial Pursuit is always going to be a rich seam of Gems. When you take into account that Julie's grasp of Geography, her knowledge of names and places and her her own specialised brand of logic comes to the fore, you know it's going to be a good time.

Go, on Julie - get a blue question!
Blast - it's a green... mind you science is often just as good...




In the ensuing discussion, Julie explained her thinking to me; apparently, the troposphere is so called because it's closer to the tropics. I didn't have the nerve to ask how she 'knew' what the relative temperatures were...

BONUS GEM!

Following Julie's little explanation, there was this short exchange...




Sort of makes you think she's doing it on purpose, but trust me, it's all completely accidental...
