I'd like to ask Brian O'Halloran if people on the street randomly go up to him and ask him to say, 'I'm not even supposed to be here today!'

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

Silver: How does your footwork work? How do you exactly parry a reverso from a guardant ward? What do you mean by "not putting in a foot"? How does your system work, exactly?

I would ask Tesla whether or not he really believes his Death Ray would actually create world peace. And if Edison is an asshole in person.

If you mean if Edison is an asshole in person as well as historically, well...

He had no hobby, cared for no sort of amusement of any kind and lived in utter disregard of the most elementary rules of hygiene. [...] His method was inefficient in the extreme, for an immense ground had to be covered to get anything at all unless blind chance intervened and, at first, I was almost a sorry witness of his doings, knowing that just a little theory and calculation would have saved him 90% of the labor. But he had a veritable contempt for book learning and mathematical knowledge, trusting himself entirely to his inventor's instinct and practical American sense.

So the answer is probably yes.

I'd die smiling if I could get a picture with Terry Crews and Neil Flynn.

Hello, we just found the perfect method of death for a Mr Dolomite. Pull some strings and call up Terry Crews and Neil Flynn.

For me, I'll just ask one of my favorite singers to sing a more obscure track.

I'd like to ask Nobel why in the name of academics he refused to make a math category for prize.

[up][up]Because math, or maths, or mathematics to give it its Sunday name, 8-), is the root of all evil. All bad things, from explosives to chemical weapons to biohazard weapons are built on its framework.

on topic:

I would ask Leo Szilard if he regretted ever reading Herbert George Wells books as a kid.

Similarly, I'd ask Talhoffer the following:

  • Why did you avoid official affiliation with the Liechtenauer school of combat when your methods are such an obvious rip?
  • Did your siege tank schematics ever get used? Please say "yes".
  • Were you a founding member of the Brotherhood of Saint Mark? A prominent student? Instructor? Was the Brotherhood appointing military ranks during your time, and if so, does that mean you inadvertently made the Liechtenauer school of combat a standard for elite German infantry?
