Note: Some folks like to share their guesses for all of the questions, but in order to submit this form, only your initials (the first question) and a guess on the last question are necessary.

For purposes of the Question #6 Leaderboard, please write below a THREE-LETTER initialism you'd like me to use to track your entries. (You might choose your initials, but doing so is not necessary.) *

Question #1 - The flag of the city of San Francisco bears the city’s motto; translated into English, it states “Gold in Peace” and WHAT metal “in War,” perhaps referring to San Francisco’s role in the Spanish-American War?

Question #2 - The Elements, Euclid’s fundamental treatise on geometry, begins with a series of definitions: a point is that which has no part, and a WHAT is “a length without breadth”?

Question #3 - A contestant on the 2024 British version of Jeopardy! could be told “This woman, sometimes called the ‘Angel of Prisons,’ was portrayed on the reverse of the £5 note from 2003 to 2017” and could be deemed correct by asking for WHAT last name, also the host’s?

Question #4 - Though your author is a bit skeptical, the website post-punk.com reports that Al Jourgensen, the frontman of the industrial-metal band Ministry, said in 1987 that “Listening to Ministry is like having a nine inch nail hammered into your [BLANK] like a hole.” WHAT word fills in that blank?

Question #5 - The 2010 film Inception concerns implanting ideas into someone’s subconscious so deeply that the person isn’t aware that the idea was externally generated. The director of Inception was apparently so committed to this idea that WHAT object, visible in the final frames of the film, is even “incepted” into his own name?

Question #6 - WHAT French preposition, part of the (French) title of a work by Jules Verne, could take its place in the hierarchy suggested by at least some of the answers in this newsletter? *
