ah, darn, you're right, just double-checked, it is Jean-Henri...

The other two... if only I knew who the hell their leader (Ikkyu, I believe) was...

Well, let's see if anyone else gets closer here. I reviewed the series, but found no overt references to the other two.

I don't know about number 7. But I can't believe you people forgot Mata Hari (WWI German agent). Especially because of where she finally showed up!!!

We have a bit of an administrative problem here, as Ikkyu is the sixth Mata Hari is in fact the seventh I-Jin. This means that CliffD finished the set, but Otohiko got the other 6. I think that Otohiko, with the vast majority of the answers, should get the thread, unless he doesn't want it.

I agree; Otohiko did more in terms of completing the answer than I did.

In that case, let me think of a question and I'll be back here with it in a few hours...

Well... after some deliberation, I decided that I'll pass that question on to CliffD.

I'm a much better answerer than a question maker, and I don't want to stall the game forever while I'm thinking of one...

So, take it away if you want. Maybe I'll get another chance later, when I actually have a question...

WAAAK!! On the SPOT!!

Okay, I'm currently in the middle of watching this series (AGAIN), so this question will be from:

Evangelion.

Episode 8 is where the audience (and, for that matter, the REAL Baka-Shinji) is introduced to Sohryu Asuka Langley. They meet on-board the pre-Second-Impact aircraft carrier Over the Rainbow, which is part of the UN naval group escorting EVA Unit 02.

The question: what is the complete ship designation (examples include NCC-1701, and DDG-51) of the Over the Rainbow?

HINT: The ship designation actually IS one for an aircraft carrier that is currently a part of the US Navy. However, the real-life name of this vessel is most definitely NOT the Over the Rainbow. (Bonus points if you DO provide the real name!).

The carrier is CVN-075, in reality the USS Harry S. Truman.

HOLY CHRIST????????????

Did you know that was EXACTLY the episode I was contemplating of using in my potential question and ask something about military technology in there, but then I changed my mind thinking it'd be too restrictive/boring????

This is like... the most coincidental thing ever... so I guess you haven't missed out on my question AT ALL.

heh. wow. Great minds think alike.
