There are many hard-working, blue collar folks out there who may just appreciate a topic on their field of work....the forest industry, farming, mining, fishing, etc. There is a limitless supply of questions and answers for all of these.

Not a bad idea unless they make it too insider and job specific. Questions on forestry are fine but we may need to avoid knowing exactly what blade works best on hardwoods while using a Stihl 36" bar chainsaw.

Personally I'd be happy of they got RID of the business questions that use terms I have never heard a single business manager use in 20+ years of being one.

Ha! I hear ya. For the month of September, which includes the Labo(u)r Day weekend for both our nations, it would be salute to hard-working labourers to have Topix and theme games (gawd-aweful-licious) tuned to the resource sectors. Biology, history, geography and mathematics could all be geared to any specific resource field. It just seems so common sense to me.

But, maybe it is just me. ;)

They do that on quite a wide variety of topics, especially when they get into stocks and bonds.

Pretty sure most of those come questions come from obscure parts of Investopedia, etc.

Get ready for the "a farmer milks a ______" questions.

(And sadly, I'm not entirely joking :o )
