What do these two cities have in common?

Post by Tdarcos »

Since AARDVARK ran a 15-answer quiz, I'll do one.

What one thing do Takoma Park, Maryland and Hong Kong have in common?

Same rules: you only get to ask questions which can be answered 'yes' or 'no'. You get 15 questions and you'll get three hints.

Hint 1: it's the same thing in the same way under the same condition for both.

Next hint at 5 and 10 questions.

Put questions in upper case so I can distinguish between comments and an actual inquiry.

I was born in both of them.
Am I a hero? I really can't say. But, yes.

DOES THE SIMILARITY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH JULY, 1997?

We got one really good response but the question has not been answered.

Ugh, ok.

"Takoma Park and Hong Kong unified on the same date (July 1, 1997). The People's Republic of Takoma Park unified into Montgomery County. Hong Kong unified into the People's Republic of China.?

You not only got it right, you got it exactly right, the complete answer. Hehehe "the People's Republic of Takoma Park," now that was a nice touch!
