Did you know that the LGBT category existed?
And had you looked for it but couldn't find it?
14 AnswersLesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender1 decade agoHow does one become a foster carer?
Do you have to be married? Can you do it with a full-time job? Can you do weekend fostering - sort of restbite care?
13 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships1 decade agoDid you go geising (spelling?) as a kid?
When I was a kid in Scotland, we went round people's houses at Halloween, but it wasn't called Trick or Treat, it was called geising. (Not sure of the spelling - can you enlighten me?). We didn't just stand in costume demanding sweets, we actually *earned* our sweets by doing a wee performance.
Did anyone else do this? Do kids still do this sometimes or is it only "trick or treat"? Is it exclusive to Scotland? Cos when Lorain Kerry told Janet Street-Porter about it this morning, JSP knew nothing about it.
7 AnswersHalloween1 decade agoWhat is cluster-cluster interaction energy, also known as mixing enthalpy?
Also useful would be how this links to liquid-liquid phase transitions. I am informed that if the mixing enthalpy is larger than the latent heat of melting then the liquid-liquid phase transition will be stable.
Simplest, most informative answer will get the prize!

32 AnswersGeneral - Australia1 decade agoDoes anyone else feel that the location of the LGBT category is rather well hidden and deep?
Shouldn't the Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgendered category be under Family & Relationships? Instead we are relegated to Society and Culture/ Cultures and Groups, under which LGBT is the only category! It is really well hidden and not intuitive to find. I only found it when I saw and LGBT question, and the category was laid out then. Do you agree it should be visable in the first level of society & culture at least, rather than the second level. Also, would you prefer it to be in Family and Relationships? If not, where would you put it? And how could we go around persuading Yahoo Answers to change its location?
26 AnswersLesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender1 decade agoDo you remember the Angel Summoner and BMX bandit from about 15 years ago?
I saw them on telly recently, and was sure I'd seen them before. Years and years ago. Does anyone else remember this? What show were they on then? Was it the same people doing them?

12 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoWhat is having cognitive therapy like?
8 AnswersMental Health1 decade agoWhat is a fragile liquid? What is a strong liquid?
I know that a strong liquid has diffusivity that follows the Arrhenius law, but what does this really mean? The Arrhenius law is that the diffusivity is proportional to exp(-E/kT), but again, what does this really mean?
