h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Nineteen twenties was the decade of the charleston and other dance crazes. Maybe they sashayed across the yard.

Did they make a movie at San Quentin of it and it was the first time a movie was shot in a prison?

They were all old, old Civil War prisoners and the guy who ran second was the only survivor.

He only had one leg.

Have 2 DGIs for:

The legacy of war

&

"The Nineteen twenties was the decade of"

But the rest - nope.

WW1 criminals with limbs missing but in this case they all had prosthetics on.

bugger...I have to go to work.

back later on Clive.

"prosthetic limbs"

Smart but not correct.

I can't promise it'll be here when you get back Keith but 85 posts in, and we're moving slowly forward so anything's possible!

>Was the outcome allowed to affect the prisoner's sentences?<

Conditional commutation of sentences

Shell shock, mental health problems, the 20s saw a growth in decent psychiatric treatment, but not in some American states where they locked them up.

Is the film "All Quiet on the Western Front"?

Hmm...

Have a DGI for we are talking about a "cure" but not for any of those.

Something to do with the prohibition?

Oddly enough, no.

If I can sum up Post: 83 and Post: 90.

If prohibition represents pessimism and control then post 89 refers to optimism and new opportunities, but about what?

And how does that relate to what was going on in Europe and in San Quentin and derivatively to this race?

Olympic games Nicolas Sarkozy*?

* I'm listening to a French radio programme where the host asks some trivia questions about topical news. More often than not this is the answer

Was it thought that criminality was an illness, or a genetic trait that could be controlled or removed? Experiments on prisoners, the eugenics movement, Brave New World, the film Metropolis.

The Olympics were 1920, 1924 and 1928

Toybox - on British quizzes, the answer is usually The Simpsons.

Have +3 for "Experiments of Prisoners"

and a DGI for Eugenics.

Oops

Wooo! Points.
