Q3 I’ve readthat a baking soda and water mixture or toothpaste will get rid of scratcheslike on prescription glasses. Is this true or just some myth? A3 C Stuart HardwickAward-Winning ScifiAuthor, Analog regularSun Baking soda and water or toothpaste, can be used as apolishing agent suitable for many purposes—but NOT polishing prescriptionglasses, especially since most glasses these days aremade of polycarbonate or some other polymer far soft than glass. Using animprovised abrasive on a lense is a quick and easy way to ruin it. Lensmaker Bausch & Lomb recommends cleaningeyeglasses with plain soap and water, then carefullydrying with a clean cotton. If they need anything more than that, take them toa local eyeglass store, many of which will be happy to clean and adjust themfor free, and which will have the equipment and supplies necessary to repolishthem if that’s advisable.

Q5 What is thedifference between a fantasy novel and a science fiction novel? A5 Claire Jordan Active in UK SF fandomand fanfiction since 1981, mod of Potter discussion groupSun Science fiction makes at least an attempt to soundlike something that could be a reasonable extrapolation from currenttechnological and/or scientific knowledge. If it contains magic, there will besome kind of in-universe explanation of how magic fits into a scientificframework, and if it contains creatures that couldn’t have evolved, such ascentaurs, then somebody constructed them in a laboratory. In “hard” science fiction the quasi-scientific whysand wherefores of how the storyverse works are a major focus of the story. Inspace opera they’re more of a plot device, like the Babel Fish in TheHitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Fantasy just accepts magic and/or fantastical creaturesas part of the background of the storyverse andthen runs with them. It doesn’t attempt to explain how they work or why theyare there in scientific terms. Fantasy too can be either the focus of the story, or justa backdrop. The Harry Potter books, for example, areessentially a mix of boarding school story and spy thriller, and almost thewhole of the fantasy aspect, except for the Horcruxes and Legilimency, is justwindow-dressing and doesn’t really affect the plot much. It wouldn’t change thestory one bit if they were playing rugby instead of Quidditch, and using gunsinstead of wands - only “Your enemy is functionally immortal and can readminds” affects the plot much.

A10 Peter Kaye Former Commercial Beekeeper.at Self-Employment (1984–2020)Mar 17 Nothing much really, a mate of mine bought a macadamiafarm, and asked if I would put some bees on the place,while I was there he asked if I would check out an old hive that came with the place,He showed me where it was, and I was astonished that it was that old a lot of the wood has rottedaway, but the bees were still using it. I carefully tried to removethe lid but it was completely glued down so had to open it forcefully to breakthe honey comb, WHAT AMESS, the whole hive was completely filled out every nook and cranny had honeyin it, I actually had to go home and get a new empty bottom box andtry to transfer the queen and brood into a new box, ( which I managed to do, )I took the full super and all the other bits of honey home for extraction, most of the honey was that oldit was almost black, BUT ONE OF THE NICEST HONEYS I HAVE EVERTASTED. So that is what happens if the honey is not collected, the bees will fill every bit of spacethey can, and end up making a real mess of the hive.
