lol... I'm usually the pits at trivia but I was just looking up Golden Years on Amazon last week wondering if I should buy the dvd since I've never seen the last episode.
My question is easy... Whoever answers it first, please feel free to ask the next question, as I won't be around to say correct.
Q: What holds 1.75 million gallons of water?

Twilight Zone: The Movie.
The second segment is directed by Steven Spielberg and is a remake of the episode "Kick the Can." Scatman Crothers plays an old man named Mr. Bloom who has just moved into his new home at Sunnyvale Retirement Home. Upon his arrival, he sits around kindly and smiles as he listens to the other elders reminisce about the joys they experienced in their days as youths. Mr. Bloom implies to them just because they're old doesn't mean they cannot enjoy life anymore and that feeling young and active has to do with your attitude not your age. However, a grumpy man named Leo Conroy who is fairly skeptical in his outlook on life disagrees, saying that now that they are all old they cannot engage in physical activity and play the games they once did as children. That night, Mr. Bloom gathers the rest of the optimistic residents outside and plays a game of kick the can. They are all ultimately transformed back into child versions of themselves. Although they are extremely ecstatic to be young again and engage in the activities they once enjoyed so long ago, they also realize that being young again means you not only experience the good aspects of life again but also the bad. They request to be old again, which Mr. Bloom grants to them. Leo Conroy witnesses one resident that still remains young and says that he wants to go with him before the boy runs off. Conroy realizes that he does not have to stop enjoying life because of his old age. The segment ends with Mr. Bloom leaving to another retirement home, and Conroy is outside happily kicking a can around the yard, for he has learned being young at heart is what really matters.

The Standpipe?
This one?
If so, it's sort of buried in with the monkeys--second full row of monkey smilies.
This one?
Buried with the Monkeys? I have to go lie down now.
Cymbal crashing monkeys to boot.........
Sorry about that. Could have sworn I'd seen another version when the emoticons were first loaded into this Board but can't find it again yet.
Hey Ms Mod! Good to see ya here in the TRIVIA thread! Um, just curious....are the social groups gone for good? Or will they be back? Out of Order... I bet The Standpipe is the answer. Shoot a Q!

Constructed in 1897, the standpipe holds 1.75 million gallons of water and rises 110 feet from Thomas Hill, named after Bangor brothers Charles and James Hill; they owned the land upon which the standpipe stands.

During the grocery store riot in the book Under the Dome what causes the cheer (mostly men) to rise up at one point in the looting?
