Carolina at Chapel Hill Lines: 34 While on a long trip this past weekend, we discovered what we think are several errors: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: How many stars in Orion's belt? Listed answer: 3 Real answer: 2. One of the three is a nebula. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: Whose hand did Hitler refuse to shake at the 1936 Olympics? Listed Answer: Jesse Owens Real answer: The entire name escaped us, but it was Jackie Robinson's younger brother. This we got from a man who had been in the German army in WWII, and he was POSITIVE of his facts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: Who led the Israelites into the promised land? Listed Answer: Moses Real Answer: Joshua. Moses was not allowed to lead the Israelites into the promised land because he had sinned in killing an Egyptian who had raped one of his people. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would appreciate feedback on whether these are accurate or not.
