=================
Nearly 50 years ago, the beautiful Oregon beach town of Florence experienced an explosion which still resounds to this day.
On Thursday, November 12, 1970, an Oregon Department of Transportation highway engineer was faced with disposing of a dead and rotting whale carcass which had washed up on the beach.
The result was what you might have expected when you try to use a lot of TNT to vaporize a very big lump of whale.
Accordingly, we offer for your approval, 3 Questions about that 1970 Oregon Exploding Whale?
Please choose your answers from any of the 4 (reuseable) Answers of "A", "B", "C", or "D" (if applicable!) for each of the questions.
Good Luck and remember, YOU are always a WINNER with us, regardless of your actual answers!
