OK, so one of the big arguments between the Roman and Celtic churches back in the 7th century, was the calculation of Easter. The Roman church used the Peter/Paul method - first Sunday after the first full moon after the Vernal Equinox. Anyone out there know how the Celtic church calculated it? Been looking for years, never been able to find out. (Some think they used the Johannine calculation - though no one seems to know what this was either - or at least no one I've come across).

In cartoons and fantasy books, kings sat in thrones in empty throne rooms, with their jester by their side. But would this have really occurred? When did the king keep the court jester for company, and why and when did he sit in his throne? Did jesters really wear such bright colors?

In Virginia in the 1770's -1790's, would the established families of the time have acquired the distinctive souther accent that would come to characterize the south in later times? I have often wondered if we could hear a recording of George Washington what would he have sounded like? Like the Virginia planters of the Civil war era, or the British gentlemen of his time? Has there ever been any linquistic studies on when "American" English began to diverge from "British" English?

This is not a philosophical question, but a serious one. I know some consider their jobs slavery, but does real slavery exist today. Are people still sold at auctions and worked hard. I know sexual slavery exists in parts of the world, but does it go beyond that.

I know Prescott Bush sat on the Board of Directors of a company that was involved in Nazi dealings and the company even had his assets frozen and his property seized under The Trading With The Enemy Act, but it wasn't just his company. There had to have been other companies right?

First the longest ever, then if it's different, the longest that was used by ancient civilizations in military conflicts.

I thought I heard long ago, maybe from the first Civilization game or something, that Macedonian had something like 30 meter long spears, but that sounded too long, even for me at the time (30 ft would still be long. Heck 10 feet is long for a spear). Yet it seems likely that someone would have tried to make a super-long spear, because as a spear length increases, so does the distance you can hit someone, but so does the weight, and difficulty of using it at shorter ranges, limiting the effectiveness of really long spears. So, what's the longest spear on record?
