Isn't it always morning somewhere? Just like it's always the morning after somewhere else?

Did anyone get that age old reference?

Asking hypothetically, is that an academic or rhetorical question?

Aren't these all really rhetorical questions- no one's answering them in their mind as they read it, right?

But (my old English teacher would hate that, I once wrote a 10 page essay in which the first sentence of each paragraph started with 'But', I did another similar one whereby they all started with 'And'...but I digress) since a rhetorical question is one that requires no answer because the answer is obvious and doesn't need to be stated, and not all of these questions have obvious answers and so may occasionally need to be stated, although we don't actually do so, this surely makes the thread a mixture of different question types, and thus corroborates the relevance of my earlier question?

... Yes.

Come on, you didn't think you'd actually get an answer, did you? :P
