One night this summer I was sitting around with Tyler, Lillywhite, and Roundy. We were planning on seeing some movie, but this brought up a vicious debate: In a theater, or at a drive-in?
Our discussion was thorough and heated. We talked about every possible aspect of the experience: company, screen size, sound quality, noise, etc. Somehow, despite a very thorough analysis, we couldn't come to a consensus. It's surprising, I know.
Of course we couldn't just leave it up to differing opinions because... well, I don't know why. But we were all convinced that there was a single best way to see a movie, and each party was determined to have the other party give in. Then we thought of something upon which we all could agree: Gabe.
We agreed that we would call Gabe and ask Him which was better, the drive-in, or the theater. We agreed that would be the end of it and whatever he said would be the right answer. We made the call, and truth prevailed.
Since Gabe has moved to New York, I wonder how many of us feel that our searches for truth have been stiffled. I've come up with a solution: Query Gabriel (dot com). The basic idea is that we can all post questions that we have, about any topic, and Gabe has to answer them.
Happy Birthday, Gabe. Thanks for your gift. To us.

So we posted a bajillion questions...on the other site...is that what we were supposed to do?
1. Which is better? Drive-in or theater?
2. When I tried to log-in, it said my user name was blocked and I can't figure out how to get an account.
Kim,
Yes, though I'm not sure I look forward to answering many of your which is worse questions.
Ronnie,
I will look into that right away.
I thought the rules clearly stated that you have to. You are like that really smart woman in the parade magazine. She answers all questions. Whats her name?
Dear Abby
No, I was talking about Marilyn Vos Sovant. OR something like that...apparently she has the hightest IQ of anyone.
