Easy peasy.  They were the first four ship names of the Mercury space program.

Freedom 7
Liberty Bell 7
Friendship 7
Aurora 7

(as well as Sigma 7 and Faith 7.  There was, ironically, no seventh Mercury launch.  The program was deemed a success and NASA moved on to the two-person Gemini program.)

Your turn!

Narcissus
Quadratus
Theocharistus
John III

H.G. Wells




Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/11/2008 6:59:35 PM)

Raechard -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 5:26:31 AM)

dc is right they may however also all have degrees in science I didn't consider that though.

I'm sure I keep asking the same questions.[:D]

Well done dc you’re up.




Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 7:55:29 AM)

Just a note. . . I checked, PC's degree was in the Arts, it was the fact that he took a Univ. Degree that was different from the other royals.  I guess that he has a Masters now as well.

Wall Street





Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 7:20:58 PM)

Names of financial districts?




dcnovice -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 7:21:35 PM)

Close, but that's not quite it.




Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 7:28:50 PM)

They are streets whose names now stand for a "group"

Wall Street - Finance
K-Street - lobbyists and think tanks
Fleet Street - British Press
Madison Avenue - Fashion




dcnovice -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 7:30:22 PM)

You got it! Though I was actually thinking of advertising for Madison Ave. Fashion is Seventh Ave. [:)]

Your turn, my dear!




Aylee -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (1/12/2008 7:32:50 PM)

According to wiki:
Between 57th Street and 85th Street, Madison Avenue is identified as “the fashionable road”. In this area is where most of the very well known fashion designers and upper class hair salons are located.

Although the other half said "Advertising" when I asked him what it made him think of. 

I will have a quartet in a moment.

Well, they are, but I am looking for something more specific.
