Great Teaser
Thanks!
"Number of Stars in the First American Flag"; should be on First Stars & Stripes, as there were many "American Flags" before the Stars and stripes. Good idea for a teaser.
A very good one! Yet, easily known once you take any American history lessons. China! If you know about any of the guests looking over the teasers, you will find that even the ones who still do not know the answer will know it from your comment.
Of course, if you are editing..... my mistake!
