hmmm..... total WAG here... I'll guess a dime is about 1/2" diameter, and a quarter is about 1" diameter, and figure the grooves are about 1/32" apart, so my guesses are: dime => (.5 * 3.14) * 32 = 48-50 grooves quarter => (1.0 * 3.14) * 32 = 96-100 grooves with the variation being whether they groove them based on a decimal or binary system. :)

The Strait of Separation The Strait of North/South The Strait of Christchurch The Strait of HMS Bounty The Strait of Australia The Strait of ... How can you tell I have no idea and am just guessing. Now, I'm going to look it up.

I meant involuntarily eat, as in when you're asleep, or at least not already in the food. But it's seven spiders, not two. Better than a dozen! I have looked it up as how I know seven spiders. Voluntarily eat, you don't wanna know how many bugs you eat per year. Ick

Yup....agreeing with red and it was a no-brainer for me (former military). The stripes were set up as alternating colors (red/white) to represent the original 13 colonies. The flag has always been red/white/blue. I'd have to go back and look up flag history to confirm when the 13 stripes became the flag base but it's been around for at least 100 years....maybe early 1900s.
