Question of the Week suggestions
Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Childish Money Making Schemes and Inventions
My demented mum recently confided in me that she and her brother had once thought up a brilliant money making scam when they were kids. They found that upon dunking, rich tea biscuits almost doubled in size. There plan was to buy them in bulk, dunk them in tea and make a tidy profit by selling the inflated cookies at inflated prices. They wondered why no-one else had ever thought of it before.
Needless to say it didn't work out too well.
What childish ideas or inventions have you have and what happened?
