Diana Ross

First FIFA World Cup shown in colour on television?
Hmm, Diana maybe wrong, you mentioned World Cup 1994 in the question and then mentioned in the "competition" in response to RB

I believe it was the world cup immediately after england won, so 1970.

Who was the last player to hit an albatross in one of the 4 golfing majors?

I've seen the colour film of the 1966 World Cup on television, if that counts.

I don't think the Women's British Open counts as one of the 4 golfing majors does it?

On what floor is the observation deck on the new World Trade Center in New York?



its on three floors 100-102

As an aside we've just bought tickets to go here in September - if anyone has missed it they've done something pretty cool with the lifts.



Floor to ceiling LED screens on the walls, showing the development of the Manhattan skyline from the POV of where you're standing.

"Guests will board one of five dedicated elevators to ascend to the 102nd floor in under 60 seconds.  Immersive, floor-to-ceiling LED technology in each cab invites Guests to experience a virtual time-lapse that recreates the development of New York City’s skyline from the 1600s to present day." is how they describe it on their website.

In practice it remains to be seen whether it looks quite so good when the lift is full of people - but the video is a good sales point
New York Times copy of it is here
Sadly they didn't use youtube so I can't make it easier by embedding it.
That's just fabulous! I'm assuming that was one of the World trade centres that briefly appeared?

There seems to be a trend of people assuming they're correct which makes this whole thing a bit crap in my opinion.

Also suggests they're either very confident or just checking it online so know they're right.

If that's the case this may become a very helpful alternative to Google for facts at some point in the future.

Just following the instructions in the OP Matt!

So you post the answer and the next question on the same post.

If someone posts the wrong answer their question is forfeited.
