When Karl is talking to this happy couple at Rick's cafe, the gentleman calls his wife "Liebchen" which would tend to imply they were from a "German speaking” country like Germany, Austria, or Switzerland ... or it might just be his nickname for her. What threw me is that, after that, one of them asked the time by saying "what clock" ... which is how the question is asked in Finnish ... to which the other answered "ten Clock" ... However, I would have expected the Finnish answer to be "clock ten". Is this likely to be a misstatement of "ten o'clock" or is it from some other language? I have encountered "how many hours" or "what hour" in a variety of languages. However, I am not an expert in European languages. Does anyone know of a language other than Finnish where the common phrase for asking the time is "What Clock?" and what of the answer "ten clock" and is the use of the nickname "Liebchen" relevant to the question?"

the documentary loose change made too much sense on too many levels to just let slide. Yet i cant help wonder if some of the things they said were made up. they seemed like they were hunting for a conspiracy before they found one. which is an easy way to get bad info. so what im looking for is a list of true or false answers not tainted with politics.
1. what is the structurally unstable point of steel due to heat?
2. what is the maximum heat attainable by jet fuel under perfect conditions?
3. How many planes have ever vaporized on impact leave next to no wreckage?
4. How many sky scrapers framed with steel have collapsed due to fire?
5. Could cell phones work on planes on 9/11? were they technoligically capable of doing so?
6. when buildings collapse do they fall straight down on thier own (similair to a planned demolision), is that impossible?
- for your answers do not use anything from 9/11 as an example. I want evidence from other places. I dont care which side it supports

We all know that a bridge on a ship is room or place from where the ship is commanded. But why is it called a 'bridge'.

"Despite the risks of being eaten by polar bears - the Arctic is home to 80 per cent of the world's population"

Is this accurate?
