Trivia Corner #3 Answers

This round was a doozy. Nobody got all 5 answers correct. A few of you came close. I was looking for a very specific answer for question #3. Everyone had good guesses but not what I was looking for. Congrats to Pat for scoring the most points in this round. Congrats to RawknRobyn for having the most hilarious answers. Here are Robyn's answers:

It's the neglect of failure to prevent or report a crime by someone who is not an accessory to that crime.

3) What is unusual about the eggs of the seabird know as the guillemot? (3 points)

The eggs are pear-shaped, which is fortunate because the guillemot nests on steep cliffs and lays its eggs on bare rock. Because of its shape, a guillemot egg will roll in a circle if disturbed, and will not fall off the cliff.
