I may not get back on the boards for a short while but I would like to leave you with this riddle and hopefully somebody will get the answer but not to soon.
It’s weightless, can be seen by the naked eye, it gives off no heat and if you put it in a barrel it will make the barrel less heavy.
What is it?

I haven’t the slightest idea.
Neither can be ridden like a bicycle.
Because there is an ‘b’ in both and an ‘n’ in neither.
(I need sleeeeep…)
Because Poe wrote on both, of course.
Oh, and isn’t that an Alice and Wonderland reference?

Not a riddle, but…
Punctuate this:
john while james had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher
Easy easy
John,while James had had ‘had’ had had ‘had had’.‘Had had’ had a better effect on the teacher

Space after the first comma and you missed a “had.” You only have 10, there are 11…
You spotted the deliberate mistake. The space after the comma is a matter of personal preference and so cannot be regarded as a punctuation mistake

Oh, and you missed the full stop at the end.
Ain’t necessarily so. Who knows how the sentence might have continued-a dash, a comma or semicolon may have been required

Here is another sentance where you have to put in the proper punctuation:
that that is is that that is not is not is not that it it is
That?
That is.
Is that?
That is not.
Is not? Is not that it?
It is.
Dunno if that’s right, but it’s the best I can do.

That that is, is. That that is not, is not. That it? It is.
