Space Toilet Dispute

I thought that our exploration of space would finally break down the barriers between nations, but as usual, how naive could I be. This story just goes to show that petty national disputes will continue to hold mankind back unless our governments can demonstrate a more global approach. If people aren't allowed to share a toilet it means that we are probably doomed as a species!

Anyway, here are Wednesday's posers: -
  1. Which company was founded today in 1891, originally selling products such as soap and baking powder with free chewing gum?

  2. Dutch international footballer Clarence Seedorf (right) was born today in 1976 in which South American country?

  3. What was the subject of the hoax "Panorama" TV programme broadcast by the BBC today in 1957?
Yesterday's Answers: 1. Malta; 2. "The Deer Hunter"; 3. John Fowles
