[REQUEST] What is the longest provable chain of 'Killers-killing-Killers'?
An example, according to Wikipedia, would be any one of Jesse James's victims > Jesse James > Robert Ford > Edward O'Kelley > Officer Burnett of the Oklahoma City Police Department who then died of natural causes, ending that chain at 5 (though one of Jesse's victims may have killed someone).
You would need to keep it to evidenced, proven killings and also stop if you can't draw responsibility for a killing back to a singular individual. Summation/Arithmetic is still math.

[REQUEST] how fast would you have to walk to dodge a crossbow bolt?
So, let's assume that the individual in question is able to see the crossbow as a slow projectile, however it still has velocity(to give them a sense of where it is while also being able to perceive it, idk if that makes sense aha). However, the person is also granted with super-ordinary speed in momentary bursts. They then decide to walk out of the way of it
How fast would they have to walk to fully avoid it, and how would such a thing look like to the one firing the crossbow?

[REQUEST] If something has a 1 in 10 chance of occuring, what are the odds of it happening twice in a row?
Example: I went to a gas station yesterday and asked the attendant to pick me out a $10 scratch off ticket. The odds were 1:10. I won $50.
An hour later I stopped at a different gas station, had the attendant pick another $10 ticket. She also chose the 1:10 ticket. I won $50 again.
What are the odds of winning two 1:10 tickets in a row?

[Request] How much does all of the air conditioners, heat pumps and refrigeration cycles contribute to global warming?
It should be factored in to the calculation: different GWPs / units, how many refrigerant leaked during normal operation in the device's lifecycle, how many lost during recovery method and how many not converted into it's components (after recovery) by just simply releasing into the air directly or mistake.
