Questions

Our assignment in class for this week is to do a search for a question in both a regular search engine (like Google) and a natural language engine (like START), then compare the two and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of natural language processing.

I really, really want to use the question "How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?" . . . but I'd like to find something that an NLP engine can actually answer, thus proving that NLP is awesome, which is the topic of my final paper.
