silly Ally, you know planaria and flat worms don't look like that!

Is it a geoduck out of it's shell?

Or some type of nudibranch?

I dunno, all I can really tell is that I think it is some sort of gastropod

A few useless hints:
- they live deep in the ocean
- they are a real delicasy in Japan
- if you put these creatures in a bucket with water, the water will turn into slime after a few hours!

You are now obliged to become the quizmaster.

sweet. I apologize if my questions come a little slow, but remember I'm like, 8 hours behind board time, and I'm posting whenever I have a few spare moments throughout my busy schedule.

Now that that is done...

QUESTION 1:

Composer Richard Wagner is known for his big and dramatic operas, with a large orchestra and a demand for powerful singers to be heard over the flurry of sound.

Likewise, composer Giacomo Puccini is known for his more lyrical operas. Even his dramatic Operas such as Tosca are more lyrical than the demand of Wagner.

However, Puccini wrote one opera that most singers have labeled: "Puccini's attempt at being Wagner!" What is this opera?

Sebatianos 31-01-2006 08:14 PM

I'm guessing you're thinking of Turandot - that's the only Puccini's opera I can think of that reqires singing while there's the orchestra is playing loudly (and that's what you mentioned in the opening statement of the question).

But I'm not sure that's all Puccini (after all he never finished Turandot).
