Ever wondered . . .
- what is earwax for?
- when is the moon blue?
- why are there only two sexes?
- do doctors live longer?
Informative, hilarious, sometimes unsettling and always unexpected, the questions and answers from New Scientist readers in the magazine's popular 'Last Word' column are endlessly fascinating.
