ETA: ~~If I buy the pattern and enough wool for two pairs, would someone like to knit me one pair?~~ I have a taker :-)

Last one for now.

What is the current thinking as to when Beowulf was (a) composed and (b) written down? And why do we think that?

Can I point you to

wormtalkslug, where Michael Drout is talking about a project to extract sheep DNA from ancient manuscripts?

And to

john_rateliff, where John Rateliff transcibes Tolkien's Linguaphone lessons on "The Tobacconist" and "The Wireless"?

For mathmos and physicists:
(1) What is the force generated by a three-pound pheasant falling from sixty feet?

For medicos:
(2) How will the human head and neck react when this pheasant falls on you?

(No, this didn't happen to me. It did, however, happen to my father!)

For economists:
(3) Just how does the UK's current economic situation lead to a weak pound?

For Anglo-Saxonists:
(4) What is the current thinking on when Beowulf was composed and written down?
