Subject: Questions from GOW's Blog
Date: Dec 03 08

I have been consistently posting riddles and questions on my blog, but in order to expand the challenge for more people, I will post the questions here.

Keep an eye out for new questions on this post.

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

556. Hmm, I like Subway, but both the food corporation and the transportation system are two words, so I don't think that is what GOW is going for.

One word, you mean.

No, I mean two words.

"556. Take a 2-word name of a food industry. Change the spacing in the name, and you now get a possible name of another industry, but now in transportation. What are the businesses?"

Two word name of a food industry. Therefore, I do not think that "subway" is what he had in mind. For Subway, there is also no need to change any spacing to mean both the restaurant and the transportation system.


Or am I completely and totally misreading the question?
