				Hello everybody 
I'd like to see just how creative us not pronners really are!
I will give a general question, and you (the reader lol) should come up with the most creative answer to the question.
The most creative wins 

And your answer DOES NOT HAVE to follow the laws of science?life etc.
SO
Here is the first question:
Why are manhole covers round?
(avoid obvious answers like "no sharp corners" etc.)
HAVE FUN!!!!!

				I dunno...the little voice in my head says that they're round so that the electricity doesn't get caught on any square edges..

				Manhole covers are round because a disk can't fit through the circular opening any way you try to push it through.  If it were square the manhole cover would fall through the square hole it was designed to fit along the diagonal.
EDIT:  As I have been chastized for my logical thinking, I have been more creative on the next page of this thread.
