Alan Rock's Trivia Questions

Q: On this day in 1929, at the Pact of Paris, better known as the Kellogg-Briand Treaty, 43 governments solemnly swore off "what" forever as an instrument of national policy?
A: War. Since that day, all 43 nations have been involved in at least three wars. Next time, maybe they should swear off lying. President Herbert Hoover declared the Kellogg-Briand Treaty in force on this day in 1929. Under that treaty, no one is allowed to eat Chateaubriand and Rice Krispies at the same meal.

Q: Alexandre Dumas was born on July 24, 1802. What did he create?
A: The Three Musketeers. Personally, I prefer Snickers.

Q: Actress Lynda Carter was born on July 24, 1951. What was her biggest role?
A: Wonder Woman on television. Did you ever wonder: if Wonder Woman went out to dinner with Superman, who would win the fight for the check?

Q: Name two things William Moulton Marston was credited with creating.
A: Both of them are very well known -- Wonder Woman and the lie detector.
