re: My answers too
Hmmm ... as an ex-quizmaster I'll go with the referee's decision ... but I bet if you get an Encyclopedia old enough it'll say the world is flat
... one of the links from that website (the same one IMT went to by the looks of things) tells you the naming history.S'ok ... didn't fancy a weekend in Wales that much anyway
... but if I see ya in Bulgaria I want a pint for coming close. Or two. 
re: My answers too
You can have more than a pint you can have a WHOLE bloody bottle of scotch mate.PS This was supposed to be a general knowledge quiz, not a research task

Ahhh the joys of quizzes in front of Google ... how we get on in the pub without it I don't know.
re: My answers too
Sorry Pete I am with Robert on this one every site I have visisted says it was invented by David Warren. Could not find a definitive answer as to why it is called a black box many think it was coined by the media because in the case of a plane crashing the info would be said to be Black. Also the original was black. So I declare the quiz to be nul a void and demand a RECOUNT!!!!
