PLEASE NOTE: All Diploma Dogs questions have
been verified using reliable educational resources, but still, some may have
changed over time or may be ambiguous. Thank you to those who have called or
emailed us with inquiries. Our intent is to ensure the information is correct.
Here are a few examples:
-
One "Geography Dog" emailed to advise us that the
Missouri River is actually the longest river in the United States,
rather than the Mississippi River, so we checked it. According to several
sources, including the Almanac the Mississippi River is longer (2,348
miles) than the Missouri River (2,314 miles) when measuring from as far as
its name goes.
-
Another call to us regarding the Science question:
"______ measures humidity." The answer is "barometer" however another
possibility is "hygrometer". Technically a barometer measures air pressure,
not humidity, therefore our answer is incorrect. A barometer measures air
pressure, which indicates humidity. We'll make this correction for
the game coming out in the fall of 2007.
-
Another call to us regarding a Health question reported
that "bacteria" is not a tiny living plant. We are currently researching
this for accuracy.
If you have a question regarding our information, please let
us know. Thank you for your help.
