+TOMTEC Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 867-979-6666 Atleast you're on the right track... everyone else seems to like random number strings. Though HELP and RCMP could work, they are quite complex for speedy dialing. (I know, 867-979-XXXX ain't that quick either, but what can you do?) TOMTEC Quote Link to comment
+Fish Below The Ice Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 If it starts with 867, it has to end with 5309. Quote Link to comment
+AV Dezign Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 If it starts with 867, it has to end with 5309. Okay, I'll bite... why? Quote Link to comment
+ElectroQTed Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 867-5309 is from an 80's song by Tommy Tutone. Quote Link to comment
+ElectroQTed Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 If HELP=4357 and RCMP=7267 then XXXX=9999 So....867-979-9999 Quote Link to comment
+TOMTEC Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 If HELP=4357 and RCMP=7267 then XXXX=9999 So....867-979-9999 Hmm, I like where you're going with this idea... but I don't think there are any letters on this key! TOMTEC Quote Link to comment
+seekie-findie Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 An excellent "Jenny" (867-5309) cache when in Vegas is "GCJJFE" Was a really great set up.... Quote Link to comment

Or how about this canadian one http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...12-dc02946651a3 That one is interesting, and the decoding part isnt that hard. A pretty good tie in. Grew up in ND, and if I am back in that area will have to take a crack at it. Thanks.... Vegas Cache was well thought out, and requires knowledge of song to "unlock", although finding it was very easy. Quote Link to comment
+Couparangus Posted March 8, 2007 Author Share Posted March 8, 2007 I'll guess 867-979-7979 'cuz it is easy to remember. Quote Link to comment

How about some urban geography. What three models make up the "Shevsky-Bell" model? If you can remeber the names feel free to describe the models. For the clueless theses three models discribe how a city will grow and expand outward. Quote Link to comment
danoshimano Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 1. Shevsky 2. Bell 3. umm... can't remember Quote Link to comment
+huskerrich2000 Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 would one of the models be a star pattern, where the city expands along transportation lines like subways or trains or in today's world of hiways Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 1. Shevsky 2. Bell 3. umm... can't remember Nope would one of the models be a star pattern, where the city expands along transportation lines like subways or trains or in today's world of hiways Not a star in the traditional drawing (pointed) sense Hint: All three have the CBD (Central Business District) at the centre.

+Couparangus Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 I don't know much about the first two but my Googling would tend to indicate they are one in the same. As for the 3rd, I couldn't find a reference to it. Let's give it another day and move on. Cheers! C-A Quote Link to comment

+TOMTEC Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Thought one of your original rules was "no googling" I think that only applies if you actually intend to answer the question... Once someone has given up, and wishes to know the answer, I don't think we have to regulate what they do on the internet. I guess it's time for another question... Should we impose a 3 day no answer time limit in the rules? (Uh, that's not the question, that's more of a general survey) TOMTEC Quote Link to comment
+Couparangus Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 That is correct. I wasn't going to answer the question if I found the answer Googling, JDandDD. I like the way Tomtec thinks. Let's adopt this approach. If we're not making headway after 3 days, its time for a new question. I say we give the next question to Danoshimano for being the closest. Cheers!

QuigleyJones Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I guess that was to hard. 1. Burgess model 2. Hoyt model 3. Harris-Ullman model Combine them all and you get the Shevsky-Bell model Ok heres and Easy question. The first and only tidal power plant in North America is where? It quite an nice place and I recomend a little visit to it. Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Im thinking of the town its in. Quote Link to comment
general_tupperware Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Saint John? Quote Link to comment
+wavector Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 But you asked where the tidal power plant was. I think it is in the Bay of Fundy? It is OK though. Since I don't live anywhere near the Bay of Fundy I really don't know any town names to guess with. Quote Link to comment

Since I don't live anywhere near the Bay of Fundy I really don't know any town names to guess with. I should have been more specific. Yes its in that area, take a guess anyway (hint: it used to be a capital) And nope its not Saint John. ... or St. Stephen Edited March 15, 2007 by QuigleyJones Quote Link to comment

Struck me as humorous that CA would google given the OP of this topic. I knew he wasn't answering. Like your suggestion about the 3 days as well.

+VO2WW Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 A capital would indicate Annapolis Royal I would guess Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Yes Annapolis Royal it is. Quote Link to comment
+VO2WW Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 One of the largest impact craters still preserved on the surface of the Earth is located in Canada. What is it's name and in which province is it located? Bonus points if you know the approximate age. Quote Link to comment

What is it's name and in which province is it located? Bonus points if you know the approximate age. Manicouagan crater in Quebec can be seen from space. Age? I'll guess Triassic? Quote Link to comment
+shearzone Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Your turn was I right on the age too? OK, here is my question: what community in Canada is the highest above sea level? Feel free to take a stab at its elevation too, I'm prepared for answers in both metres and feet. Quote Link to comment
+knitter Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 (I know this one, as I have cousins there that we tease about being airheads .) No idea on the elevation though, so I'm not telling. Quote Link to comment

+shearzone Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) Well, since everybody is guessing in the same area, I'll take a stab. Lake Louise? You got it! Lake Louise sits at 1530 m above sea level. Edited March 17, 2007 by shearzone Quote Link to comment
