I think all of the most common categories have plenty of trivia old and new. I must admit I have no idea what an IRC Trivia Bot is, but I am assuming some sort of electro-mechanical comtrivance that will pose trivia questions in one format or another.
Assuming all catagories are needed, here are some good railroad trivia questions. My family has had many years (generations, actually) in railroad service, so my scope is limited in other areas. Hope they're useful.
On the railroad, what is a "hog head?"*An engineer.
What is an "eagle eye?"*An engineer.
What is a "tallow pot"*A fireman.
What is a "shack?"*Caboose.
Who is "the shack?"*Conductor. Note the difference between the two.
What is a "gandydancer?"*Track layer (section man)
What is a "brakie?"*Brakeman (very far and few between these days)
What is "high iron?"*The main track.
This list could go on and on. Here are some other examples.
The format is a little different requiring more than a one word answer. I'll not go into them now, far too wordy. If this is going in a direction you want to go, you can contact me and I'll be happy to contribute to the project.
How did the term "hoghead, tallow pot, flip flop, highball, eagle eye etc.," originate.
We can get as detailed as you wish. You can contact me through this site. Sounds like it may be fun. Lemme know...........
