A joint study by Harvard and Google has estimated there to be 1,022,000 words in the English language. Taking the base 2 logarithm of this, I can estimate that with an efficient series of 20 questions, one may determine any single word of the English language. Taking this into consideration, asking the question of simply "What is the answer" is equivalent to asking 20 yes or no questions.

Therefore, I simply ask you this:

What is the answer?

Yeah... I might have meant to PM that. Forget it... I'm not the smartest. I'm actually rather thick. Sorry for ruining that.

I was guessing a clock, since it has 2 hands (or 3), and time can seem to go faster over... time. Then I Googled it. Close enough.
