| Wow. I had no idea, and I'm glad I checked the answer as soon as I was sure of that. The answer was really good though, and it made me think I probably could've gotten it if I thought "outside the box"..... oh well, maybe next time! (I rated this fun and hard, just because.) |

| And here I took chemistry, but I was thinking too much about other life items. :oops: This is a top quality teaser, to be able to slip by this character, without getting another good answer for it. Well done! :wink: |

| Wow, thanks everyone. You've left me stirred, not shaken. :D |

| Great teaser!! I would never have gotten that answer but once I saw it the answer made perfect sense!! :D :D :D |

| i figured, obviously, James Bond, but thought the use of double bonds, not signle would somehow make "double oh seven" but couldnt work it out - very nicely done. Thought it was easy enough, but clever and fun. good job! |

| :o *feels retarded and dumb for not getting answer*
good one though |

| Absolutely loved it, though I "jumped the gun" and went with "James Bond" for my answer (the actual answer is much better). Glad I didn't see the title or the hint. As a 8) 8) 7 fan it would have made it too easy! Thanks for submitting. :D |

| Knowing absolutely nothing about organic chemistry it"s safe to say I had no idea what this was about.Sorry about that. I'm sure it is a very good teaser from reading the other comments. :o |
|

| XIEXIE NI! (THANK YOU!) :) :) |

| Posted by MurfQ | 09/13/06 |
| Had no trouble getting the answer, but I figured it seemed like the clue was too much for such a simple answer, so I kept trying to figure out more.
Not to seem harsh, but when I decided to read the hint before checking the answer, I was sure there had to be something to the single bond versus double bond thing. Posing the question of whether MQ would use a single or double bond seems a bit unfair (especially as a hint) when the type of bond has no bearing whatsoever. I think it would have been better if you had worked the M-Q thing in there without referencing the type of bond. Just my thoughts :-? |

| :roll: :roll: That was good. Once I saw the answer I didn't know why I couldn't get it. I guess my mind was on a totally different path. Great teaser. You stumped me!!! |
|
| Posted by iteachkids | 09/13/06 |
| I myself am shaken AND stirred! :o
I never took chemistry, so I had no clue. Seeing the answer and your explanation was an education in itself! Thank you for a good lesson presented in a most clever fashion!!! :D:D:D |

| Still scratching my head.... I didn't understand it at all... sorry! :( |

| I enjoy these Brain Teaser,it funbut it get you to think what the answer is.
Keep up the good work!
God Bless Y'all! |

| This was great!!! I loved it!! I too thought it was James Bond and didn't get the first Bond, I was trying to add a 007 somewhere in there too...
Great teaser!!! Going in my faves!!!

| I guess I'm 'on the rocks' and not even 'straight up'. I had no clue..... started with Santa - hohoho.. :roll: 8) :roll: |
|
| Posted by FreddyPharkas | 09/13/06 |
| How bout in English? It is. And the word is about.
Glad most of you liked the teaser, and enjoyed learning something new. That's what it's all about. :D |
|
| Posted by thelordnyax | 09/13/06 |
| clever...and I love James Bond! (I am in the graduating class of 007) |
|
| Posted by Punk_Rocker | 09/13/06 |
| Very clever, I love it. I didn't get it, but it was great. =] |
|
| Posted by bennal | 09/14/06 |
| Really, really great. Passed it around and got lots of cool groans. |
|
| Posted by vlerma | 09/16/06 |
| :D Well, Freddy, you stumped me. Sorry to say, since Sean hasn't been 007, I have sort of lost interest. Super great teaser tho. And your informative explanation was doable, even by me. :wink: |
|
| Posted by RRAMMOHAN | 09/21/06 |
| Couldnt get it, as I havent studied organic chemistry.The = signs did ring a bell, though, but not loud enough to venture a guess. Seems to be a good teaser. |
|
| Posted by luckylefty | 11/10/07 |
| Easy but clever :D |
|
| Posted by bookworm91 | 11/12/07 |
| Ahhh... very clever. I kicked myself when I saw the answer. :D |
|
| Posted by lil09 | 09/13/09 |
| i liked it - thanks |

| Say What!
Mind giving me that in Layman's Language? |
|
| Posted by crazy10man | 09/13/09 |
| Very clever!
In "layman's" terms, and reduced down:
= in chemical equations, means bond; so =james= literally translates to:
"bond, james bond"
of course I didn't know this until I read Freddie's great explanation. |
|
| Posted by doehead | 09/13/09 |
| I also studied chemical engineering in college,so this was pretty easy for me,but was an excellent teaser. :wink: :wink: :wink: |
|
| Posted by bigaldepr48 | 09/13/09 |
| Although I got it, it kinda miss led me. = is a double bond for a "Bond Bond James Bond Bond" |
|
| Posted by blackwolfe | 09/13/09 |
| I agree with the previous comment; I came up with "Double Bond James Double Bond". I believe it would have made more sense if it had been -James-.
But otherwise a great teaser! :D |
|
| Posted by mumbojumbo1234 | 09/13/09 |
| I just ended up getting "James Bond." I figured = was a double-bond so that didn't help me out.. nor did the title which made me try to make it into some kind of car lmao....
The hint didn't help me at all since I've never seen any Bond movies :lol: |
|
| Posted by wordmama | 09/13/09 |
| Although I recognized the arrangement of elements as representing oxygen, water, and carbon dioxide, not having taken a unit in organic in over 40 years, the word 'bond' escaped me; therefore, I could only come up with James II (British king). Glad so many enjoyed this! |
|
| Posted by 2thGirl | 09/13/09 |
| I first thought "007", seeing the double bond reference. Then I thought, "Wait; Bond; James Bond". :D
Chalk one up for the blonde girls! Yay!! 8) :P :D |
|
| Posted by Barticus | 09/14/09 |
| I spent two minutes pondering before the word "bond" paired with "James" in my head to make the answer. The great thing about senility is I get to have fun solving a puzzle I solved three years ago. I know I did it. I gave this teaser a star. |
|
| Posted by HABS2933 | 09/13/12 |
| Although the teaser was pretty easy for anyone with even a remedial knowledge of chemistry, I enjoyed it. Whether or not a single bond or double bond should have been used does not change the quality of the teaser, and since only one answer made sense (who is Bond Bond James Bond Bond?) what does it really matter? It was refreshing to see an original teaser. |
