    Over here we have AQA (Any Question Answered) - had loads of fun with this one a couple of years ago. Asking it stupid questions to stump it and seeing what irrelevant answers it would give after admitting defeat like:

    Q: How many candles does Mischa Barton own
    A: Sorry, we were unable to find out the information you requested about Mischa Barton's candles. However, we can tell you she owns three cars including a blah blah blah...


    Also, 118 118 do it now as well but they charge about £1 per text (which is about $2)

    Oh well, I fail; I never heard of any of these "answer any question" sites before.

    We have a creepy thing called "Bongo". You txt your name, age and where you live (city) to some number and it will text you back all this information about yourself.

    I don't know how it does it.

    But it knew where one of my friends lived.

    And after you do the first one you can ask it more specific questions like "Who is James' best friend?" and all this.

    I don't fucking like it.

    i'm not surprised that australia would have something like this as it is ever so slowly descending into a socialist police state.

    Well, except not really.

    Oh and by the way, Oats is from NZ.

    NZ is to Australia what Soviet Russia is to Spain.

    Or you can call Auburn Univeristy's student information center and they, by tradition, will answer any question you ask to the best of their abilities.

    The first balloon was (called the balloon of pie) invented by Brazilian-born Portuguese priest, Bartolomeu de Gusmão, and the first public exhibition was to the Portuguese Court on August 8, 1709, in the hall of the Casa da India in Lisbon.
