Who Wants to Be A Millionaire - Night 14

Welcome to the 14th edition of Who Wants to Be A Millionaire.

Hall of Fame
-Takinover (Million dollar winner)
-KillerTomato (Million dollar winner)
-tlynn78 (Million dollar winner)
-NellyLunatic1980 (500,000 dollar winner)
-Slam (Million dollar winner)
-TheCalvinator24 (Million dollar winner)

The Life Lines

Ask The Audience - Everyone who is watching the game posts what they think the answer is and the contestant picks which one he wants (or if no one posts in 10 minutes, I will allow the the contestant to use a 5 minute google search)
Phone A Friend - One bored member of the contestant's choice post's what he thinks the answer is.
50:50 - Same as Show
Switch The Question - This life line becomes available after the 25,000 dollar question is answered correctly.

Image

obvious rules: Unless you use a life line all of the answers to these question must come from your own knowledge, we are on the honor system. Why would you want to cheat anyway, you don't win any money. Plus these questions are supposed to be hard there is no shame in getting just one wrong.

No Fastest Finger Question, Who ever posts first get's to play. :)

Good thing you didn't add the choice of "French Fry Oil".

I will go with A. Gasoline, Final Answer.

Tincture: a solution prepared by steeping or soaking (maceration) plant materials in alcohol and water.

Sometimes, in medicine, we talk about treating the patient with "Tincture of Time". Which really means we will just sit and wait.

Out of those choices, I will have to go with D. Thomas Edison.

I thought, however, that Edison didn't necessarily invent the light bulb so much as develop a commercially-feasible one.

At any rate, none of the other choices are better.
D. Thomas Edison, Final Answer

Are you sure this is the $500 question? At least put in some reasonable distractors.

I will go with B. George Washington, Final Answer

[So therefore, John Adams must be on the $2 bill, Jefferson on the $3 bill, etc.]

Julie is ga-ga for Alex Hamilton! He's one of her home-boys.


John of Gaunt, however, is da bomb.

My first car (well, technically my parents' car, but the first one I was the primary driver of) was a Clementine-orange convertible Volkswagen Beetle. I used it for deliveries when I worked at Swensen's, thereby fulfilling a lifelong (to that point) dream of being an ice cream man.

C. Volkswagen, Final Answer

Although your question seems to ask who the current maker is. I think it isn't being made anymore

It's like you made this stack with him in mind.

In addition to being a doctor and a Volkswagen lover, he is a toxicologist.
