1. On March 6, 1869, Dmitri Mendeleev presented the first Periodic Table of the Elements to the Russian Chemical Society. What memories do you have of your high-school chemistry course? It was difficult since I have to memorize every single item in the Periodic Table and I can’t see the reason why we have to do it.
2. On March 6, 1899, the Bayer company registered aspirin as a trademark. When did you last take medication for pain? Last week I think, when I had a headache.
3. On March 6, 1853, Giuseppe Verdi’s opera La Traviata premiered in Venice. How do you feel about opera? I am not a fan of opera.
4. On March 6, 1947, American film director Rob Reiner (Meathead!) was born. Which of these Reiner-directed films have you seen, and what do you think of them?

o Alex & Emma (2003)
o The Story of Us (1999) I barely can’t remember the story line but I know that I love this movie

o The American President (1995)
o North (1994)

5. On March 6, 1972, American basketball-player Shaquille O’Neal was born. How do you feel about basketball? It is a very thrilling game.
