What is the most populous city in the United States?

A. New York
B. Los Angles
C. Chicago
D. Philadelphia

I used to live near New York, and it always seemed as if all 9 million people were always in Times Square at the same time when I took the train into the city.

A. NYC, final.

I think Brokaw has always been on NBC. I know Kroft and Couric were or are currently doing it. I'm pretty sure Cooper was on it. So

B. Tom Brokaw, final.

Well, I'm pretty sure of two that it's NOT. But as for the other two....

I'd better ATA, since there's at least one person watching.

PSM seems oh-so-positive, so I'll go with her answer. I was all ready to say that I knew it wasn't the other two Margarets (the Notorious C.H.O. and Ms. Mead, who I know is dead)...then I noticed that one of them was a Marianne, not a Margaret....But no worries...

B. Margaret Chan, final.

No problem. I had no idea other than the fact that it wasn't Mead.

I LOVE Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels! (FTR, Marple is Agatha Christie, Cross is James Patterson, and Scarpetta is Patricia Cornwell.)

A. Stephanie Plum, final.

Well, I know where one of these is. And another is, I think, a county in the UK. But I know of a town in NY with the same name, so I think it's out.

I'm gonna 50/50, and hope one of those 2 is left.

Is anyone else having trouble with the site?????

I've been to Clewiston, FL, so I'll have to go with C. Middlesex, but I'm not happy with the distinction between town and city.

Sorry about the delay, I've been getting blank pages and error messages. I took me forever to get here. I'll post the next question in a moment, but you are right for 50,000 dollars. I hope your still there.
