Good afternoon All When I fired up my iPad today, my thoughts were much the same as Tim's grumpy old man-ish views. However, on my interpretation, the kiss question could be answered simply - on 26 September 1926, in my mother's arms!

These are not self selectable questions but some no doubt selected by a person much younger than me who thinks the questions are relevant and able to be remembered. Questions such as favourite teacher, least favourite teacher, favourite car, least favourite car, best friend in school, and even where I had my first kiss. This is nonsense as far as I am concerned - grumpy old man response I know, but it assumes a whole lot, such as first that I remember these things, or even cared about them either the many decades ago they happened or remember them with enough consistency to say the same thing again next time iTunes happens to ask me. If they are going to ask questions that will have to be recalled completely accurately into the future to pass a computer gate keeper, they should be factual, not opinions such as "favourite" or 'least favourite' which can easily change over time. Bah humbug.... Not happy with the very unApple not well considered questions. Yes, there are five options for each of the three questions, but nevertheless, they are useless and unhelpful questions. Now, I'm off to 1Password to add them in so I don't forget. And I took a screen print in case more than three minutes passed between answering the questions and have to recall them....... pfft, what's the world coming too? BTW, it was with Kate, over at Rotto....... she swam out to .... ooooow, too much information.
