Bwahaha! I didn't have the faintest idea what the clap thing could be, so I thought I thought maybe it had to do with movies and Hollywood - because of filming clapboards. Hot damn was I far from the truth! :-D
The Brontosaurus has been rehabilitated as its own dinosaur, something which I learnt from another quiz on this site. Here's a link to a Scientific American article on the issue: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-brontosaurus-is-back1/
The point that kiwiquizzer, who I assume is from New Zealand, is making as that Americans spell gonorrhoea wrongly. I agree. I so often hear that this is an English language quiz - so accept English spelling. If you wish to accept the US version as an alternative, that's fine, but at least accept gonorrhOea!
Yes please. Jetpunk is usually very good at ensuring non-American English spellings are accepted, so no reason not to do so here. Gonorrhoea is the standard spelling in the UK.
Many thanks!!
