In answer to your quiz: a) self contained underwater breathing apparatus? - full marks! b) radio something - radio detection and ranging c) light something - light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (have to confess I had forgotten myself what the 's' & 'e' stand for and had to check!) d) never even heard of this acronym - Organisation of petroleum exporting countries e) national astronautical space agency? - National Aeronautics and Space Administration (a valiant effort on that one on your part sir!) Although I was expecting a bit better from you I have to say, I'm still in awe of your beautiful mind & you're more than welcome at the next table quiz!
