So I was looking and Earth is the densest of the planets.
I couldn't find a specific reason, but I am guessing Earth is the densest because per cubic km it has the most mass. The larger planets are made up of more gases.
Hmmm,
What is the standard tuning for the strings on a 6-string guitar?

I believe you could be referring either to the tomato or the potato, although the potato didn't gain popularity in Europe as a food until the mid to late eighteenth century, and had been previously grown mostly as a botanical curiosity. Both potatoes and tomatoes are members of the nightshade family.
I hope I have my facts straight.
Okay, question: During mating season, male cuttlefish of relatively diminutive size will sometimes perform what trick to level the playing field against larger males, winning them time with a female?

hopefully this is correct.
from volcanodiscovery.com:
The largest volcano on earth is Mauna Loa on Hawaii's Big Island. It is a massive shield volcano constructed by countless lava flows. When measured from the base to the top, the pile of lavas measures more than 17,000 m (56,000 ft)!
When measured from the sea floor, Mauna Loa's height is still more than 9,000 m, thus it is also the highest mountain on earth. Mauna Loa in fact is so heavy, that its weight has bent the oceanic crust under the volcano several kilometers downwards into the mantle.
Mauna Loa is one of the Earth's most active volcanoes, with 33 well-documented eruptions in historic times since 1843. Its last eruption was in 1984 and since 2004, Mauna Loa is showing increasing signs of a possible awakening in a not-too-distant future.
staying on the topic of volcanoes, who can name the top 10 deadliest volcanic eruptions in history,with 10 being the least casualties and 1 being the most.

as found on wikipedia, so it might be wrong.
What at one time was thought to be the record holder for the longest tornado path is now thought to be the longest tornado family, with a track of at least 293 miles (472 km) on May 26, 1917 from the Missouri border across Illinois into Indiana. It caused severe damage and mass casualties in Charleston and Mattoon, Illinois.[2]
What was probably the longest track supercell thunderstorm tracked 790 miles (1,271 km) across six states in 17.5 hours on March 12, 2006 as part of the March 2006 Tornado Outbreak Sequence. It began in Noble County, Oklahoma and ended in Jackson County, Michigan, producing many tornadoes in Missouri and Illinois.[8]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoagy_Carmichael
Carmichael's 1943 song "I'm a Cranky Old Yank in a Clanky Old Tank on the Streets of Yokohama with my Honolulu Mama Doin' Those Beat-o, Beat-o Flat-On-My-Seat-o, Hirohito Blues" is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the song with the longest title. However Carmichael admitted it was a joke; the title was intended to end with the word 'Yank'.
Let's go back to when MTV actually played music videos...What was the second music video ever played on the channel?
