(Or is it "tria inscitiae"? Such ignorance right out of the gates!)
QUAESTIONE PRIMA: What are "wild hairs"?
COGITATIO: I think they are a kind of 'hair cancer' in which one hair radically but terminally metastasizes as a kind of very limited mitotic error. They are 'deformed' like other tumors, but in a hair-like way, which is what makes them so thin and easily removed.
RESPONSUM:
QUAESTIONE SECUNDA: Can and do dogs really smell fear?
COGITATIO: I think they cannot 'smell' it as much as simply 'sense' it in broader instinctive, phenomenological way. If, however, they really can smell fear, I'm all for isolating that "fearomone" and using it in covert mass-public psyops! Woot!
RESPONSUM:
QUAESTIONE TERTIA: How or why does the gas gauge drop to empty in some cars/motorcycles when you shut off the engine?
COGITATIO: I suspect the battery, when turned on, engages some small valve or hose-head which relies on passive pressure (gravity) to shift the gas into the gas gauge floating in the tank.
RESPONSUM:
