I've been out of my tree for years - witness my presence here :-)))

It should be very loud on the surface of the sun. Solar flares and convection cells, many larger than Earth, are in constant motion, dropping to the photosphere, where the surface gravity is nearly 30x that of Earth's. This would create quite a noise, and this is continuously happening. There is a hypothesis that the reason that the sun's corona is nearly 1 million degrees hotter than the photosphere is partly because of the intense sound waves. The sound can't get past the corona since that is a vacuum, so all the energy from the sound waves must be absorbed by the very diffuse corona.

We are lucky that sound does not transmit through space, or not only would the sun be blindingly bright, it would also be deafeningly loud as heard from Earth.

Waiting for Godot & salvation :-)

Why do doctors have to practice?
You'd think they'd have got it right by now

Is the game over? You have stopped giving hints and no one is guessing anymore.

I've never fallen down a

I've never fallen down a mountain. The closest I've come was when I was approaching 8 years old and fell off the top of a swing set. Most of me fell on dirt and was fine, but my right arm hit concrete and broke just above the wrist. Result: four weeks of cast past my elbow and two more weeks of cast below my elbow, just when we were learning to write cursive in school. I never did catch up on that.

Night Bill - though you may

Night Bill - though you may already be up again :)

@David - ooh - painful - I didn't break anything except lots and lots and lots of skin :) Trouble with shorts and tee-shirts - not much protection :/

@Mikey - well... I will refer you back to this:

I will declare the thread won :)

Now all you have to do is work out who won it and what with :) and the first person to get that right can decide between themself and the person who won, who won it. Happy now!? :)

So far David has guessed TL and was wrong :)

If you would like a clue :) then scroll to a timelord (or a swim) and a mouse will take you there :)
