  • Infuriating Quiz help needed

    You can insert punctuation into the title as you see fit.

    I'm trying to complete one of these quizzes where they give you a number then some initials, and you have to expand the expression:

    eg: 24 H in a D = 24 Hours in a Day
    32 FP of W in F = 32 Freezing Point of Water in Fahrenheit

    etc. Some may be dates, some are mathematical (we had the pair 91 IN a PN [is not a prime number], followed by 97 I [97 is]), some are other stuff. Doing quite well, and only 4 are left - but I've no idea what they are at all. The first three were classed as Medium, while the last one is Evil.

    33 V in the H B
    1100 T F T Y
    2006 N W S O
    344 A of H P in A

    Any thoughts would be appreciated. I figure the 2006 one might be Next Winter Sports Olympics - but the official title doesn't have "Sports" in it, so an alternative would be good.

    Oh, and did you know that the Last Aurochs Died in Poland in 1627?

      Because a friend has it. I'll post the others if I can borrow it at some point.

        33 volts in the head band. A negative reinforcement technique.

          Maybe "2006 N W S O" has something to do with the date 20 June, just before the longest day/shortest night. But the Winter Sports Olympics is a good bid as well.

              33 vertebra in the human body. I think

                      I think the 33 vertebrae is right. We're born with that many.

                      Is there a Winter Special Olympics? (I can't believe I'm suggesting this.)

                        Ah, we thought it might be vertebrae - but a web-search turned up 20-something. You reckon we're born with 33?

                          We're born with 33, but they start to fuse. Or something.

                            I thought it sounded right

                              Yes, a revised web search for vertebrae birth 33 confirms that 33 is the standard number at birth.
