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.)

Misunderstood Science
My dad asked me about weakly interacting particles over dinner one night which caused my sister to look blank and ask "what they only interact like every Sunday?"
that and Peaches Gedolf's infamous guide to the LHC ("like that thing in Texas where they are like trying to build a black hole in space like") have made me wonder what other amusing scientific or similar misunderstandings people have heard?
