Hunt #2

  1. My 1954 Skyliner broke down at the intersection of Interstates 20/59 and 359. Since my Skyliner is a tough car to find parts for, I want to have my car towed to one of its manufacturer's official dealerships. What is the address of the nearest manufacturer dealership?
  2. What nickname does the 1985 and 1986 Butkus Award winner share with the author of "The Mystery of Edwin Drood?"
  3. What is the latitude and longitude of the server at ftp://2161249224/ ?
  4. The Squirrel Hunt Team tries to shy away from news quizzes -- especially news quizzes written by Microsoft-supported online news magazines -- but we couldn't resist this one. In England, a group of 40 independent Christian schools plans to petition the European Court of Human Rights to have the ban lifted. Ban on what?
  5. Three times from 1995 to 1996, the Earth had a perfect edge-on view of Saturn's rings. These perfect edge-on viewing events happen generally in 13-16 year intervals. We'll have an edge-on angle again in 2009, 2025, and 2038-39. However, the 2009 and 2025 viewings will be lousy. Why?
  6. On November 3, 1998 in Memphis, Tennessee, an airport ground crew member was killed when he walked into a spinning propeller. What kind of aircraft was it?
  7. Can a celiac drink vermouth?
  8. Why is there no channel 1 on old American TVs?
