    Volume is mL cubed

    There is no such thing as mL cubed. Millilitres are already volume.

    g/mL is a correct answer.

    although this is closed mind thinking, there are mL cubed once you escape out of 3 dimensional thinking ;)

    I wouldn't have considered it as a measurement of density, and I did Google it! But if it's that important to people I can update it tomorrow when I'm at the computer. On mobile now.

    Ah didn't realise this was on tonight :)

    Not that I'll do very well

    Edit: Dang didn't realise it was all over. I like the live reveal, kept waiting to catch up with it and then it was over! Still not a terrible showing considering I had no clue on two.

    Well done GnR and thanks for the game Sullivlo

    Missed this trying to get my head round my first werewolf, I can't believe how many times I sheeped!

    Glad to see I wasn't the only one clueless about Nobel Laureates. I was surprised one was 2015, don't remember hearing about that

    Thanks Sullivlo! :)

    I read this before going to bed last night and genuinely broke my bollox laughing at it. I was in knots.

    It was the first thing I thought about then this morning when I woke up.

    Is there a rule that you can't use Google for your answers? I didn't.

    Yes, AFAIK you don't google for PEEHS but you are welcome to google for SHEEP. That's why I'm second last :D
