These were rejected as too easy:

Succinctly describe the Cauchy-Riemann equations (25 characters).

Derive a version of string theory that only uses 11 dimensions (25 characters).

The best part about number two is that it might be correct in at least one of the dimensions, in which case your chances (or the chances of one of your other selves) will get a comment published in at least one dimension. The others will have to e-mail.

For the easy questions, I think:
• 1/8
• 3.1415926536
• Genetics
• Robert W. Kearns

I only supplied two of those answers myself; the others I found pretty much instantly on Wikipedia.

Did you know your doctor uses Wikipedia?

I know some blogs have the option of forcing people to type the letters in an image, in order to prove they’re people. Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of how to implement these, but many have them. Dress A Day for instance.
