I feel really stupid asking this, and I assume I will get some people rolling their eyes at me for posting this, but it's something I never thought about before.

I know why leaves change color in the fall, and I know why they fall from the trees. My question is why different colors. Why do some trees' leaves turn red, others yellow and others orange or brown?

I know I should know this, and again I apologize for asking you to take time to answer such an elementary question, but I'm curious.

Ok this is a gr7 question. We are creating "ice devices". I have to create a device that will keep ice from melting. I have no clue on what to do. Although I will most likely put the ice cube in a shoe box and wrap the ice in aluminum and maybe sprinkle some salt over it. Any ideas on how I should create this "ice device"??

A friend of mine told me that the fossils on display in museums are plaster replicas because the actual fossils are too fragile. I always thought that the fossilization process turned the bones into rocks. Who is right here?

That night I dreamed the same dream except there was a couple of new additions to the dream, one being that the nuclear power plants that California uses to generate electricity with contributate to the destruction caused by the massive earthquakes, causing deep interior explosions that split the earth into segments instead of sections and the State of California is pushed away from the mainland USA and becomes an Island.

On top of that here are reprecussions felt around the world, from this massive earth movement and several Islands in the Caribbean can no longer boost a active tourist trade since their Island is completly underwater.

This is what I just dreamed will happen, so take it for what's it's worth, and don't be mad at me, I am just the messenger!!!!!

Yahoo staff will probably delete this question under one of their guideline rules, the "catchall" rules, but something that the Yahoo staff should consider is that Sunnyvale, California is in California and they are or will
