Yahoo questions...

All week we've been talking about Yahoo moments. A Yahoo moment is one where either Fong, Zi or Fel would ask a question that nobody would have the answer to. We'll all then yell 'ya-hooo' in unison, and still be none the wiser.

So I'm finally going to list out the questions. Alas my memory is no longer very good and I only can recall these.

1. Why do mosquitoes exist?
Answer - they pollinate flowers (after bees, they are the most prolific pollen distributors). And we all know how bees pollinate because we watched the Bee movie at least twice in 1 week. But that's another story altogether.

2. What's the difference between the monsoons in Krabi versus Singapore/Malaysia? Why are they different times of the year?
Answer - Krabi is affected by the south west monsoon rains which is now.

3. What is SPF and what's the difference with PA?
Answer - PA is the Japanese standard and measures UVA rays. PA +++ is what we were using. Or rather what vain Fong had to apply daily.

4. How would a cockatoo cycle? Or an Egyptian, for that matter?
