Depends which model of the Universe you follow.

Nor an Historian. "World war 2 broke out in Oct 2014" You sure about that @Dave7 ?

I was nearly correct......just one war out is all.

One war and one century.

Does Gravity exist as an attracting force?

It's experienced as an attracting force, but is caused by - at least that's a hypothesis that hasn't been disproven - a curve in space/time.

I imagine the answer to the question will involve a dispute over claimed sales versus certified units.
The first wiki link states that the table is based on certified units of sale, and claimed sales are always much higher due to the PR spin.
I will be interested to see what answer MikeG comes up with.

........The first wiki link.......

Nobody has done any rules for the thread, but I'm pretty sure that if they did, looking it up on Wiki would be the first thing disallowed.

I'm not entering, I'm just checking someone else's answer, so that fine.

And no one else is cheating, otherwise someone would have named a domesticated animal that is not a sheep, goat, cow, dog, chicken or pig a little faster than they did.

I do remember reading about this. If memory serves it's not a western popular singer, but I can't remember whether it's an Indian or Chinese singer or a western classical musician or a non-musician.

It was a silly question, really. There is no way of knowing for sure, and I am very much a person who wants evidence for stuff before I'll accept it so I should have known better. The answer in my local pub quiz a few weeks ago was Streisand. However, with claimed sales anywhere between 250 million to 400 million, the person I was after was Nana Mouskouri, who doesn't even appear on the Wiki lists. Take your Wiki "facts" with some caution.

Anyone who has a question can jump in.
