So you can toast the bread faster, no one says you have to keep the bread in till it pops up.

Goofy's an anthropomorphic dog, as Mickey's an anthropomorphic Mouse.

a.. Can blind people see their dreams? Do they dream??
If you're born blind, you don't "see" in your dreams. You have auditory dreams.

a.. If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme crap,why
didn't he just buy dinner?
Wile E. Coyote works for Acme Industries, he doesn't have to pay for it.

a.. If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?
Quizzes aren't really quizzical. Tests are testing.

a.. Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?
Both are based on the French melody Ah! Vous dirais-je, Maman, as is Baa Baa Black Sheep.

Illuminattile is a fountain of knowledge
but im still not convinced about the blind people seeing in their dreams thing
What we dream about is based on what we experience in everyday life.

If you're born blind, you don't have visual dreams. If you are born sighted, but at some point go blind then you can have visual dreams, but as you become more reliant on other senses visual dreams tend to become less common.

Some blind person said:
Yes, blind people do dream. What they see in their dreams depends on how much they could ever see. If someone has been totally blind since birth, they only have auditory dreams. If someone such as I, has had a measure of sight, then that person dreams with that measure of sight. I still dream as though I can see, colors included. For people I've met since, their faces are just blurs or how I imagine they look. To me, someone like my mother looks forever 30.

Why do kamikazie pilots wear helmets?
Firstly, fighter pilots don't wear helmets to protect them in case of a crash. If you crash a fighter plane, a helmet's not gonna save you. Pilots wear helmets for several reasons:

a) To protect them from the wind and rain, in the days before covered cockpits, and continued to be worn even when the use of them for this purpose became obsolete.
b) Helmets contain radio equipment.
c) Protect the pilots head when performing manouevres.
d) Regulations.

If today is 0 degrees, and tomorrow i supposed to be twice as cold, how cold will it be?
Zero degrees fahrenheit is 255.46 Kelvin. Twice as cold means half the energy making tomorrow's temperature 127.73 Kelvin or -229.8 degrees fahrenheit.

Zero degrees celsius is 273.15 Kelvin. Twice as cold means half the energy making tomorrow's temperature 136.57 Kelvin or -145.43 degrees celsius.
 
Out of the first answers Illuminattile gave, the Goofy one, the blind/dream one & the "quizzical" one are all a matter of logic. The Wile E, Coyote answer was more the result of wit & the Alphabet/Twinkle, Twinkle Litte Star/Baa Baa Black Sheep was a nice piece of knowledge.

The kamikaze answer was logical also but Illuminattile did overlook a simple point: a good portion of kamikaze pilots don't set out to be one.

And the temperature one, logic again.

Don't get me wrong, Illuminattile IS smarter than all of you lol, just not so much for this.
