  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Wow, a whole 53 percent think daylight comes from the sun while 47 percent remained uncertain why daytime is light and nighttime is dark....

45% of Americans, when asked, "Which is more useful to people, the sun or the moon?", replied, "The moon, because the moon is out at night when it's dark, and the sun is out during the day, when it's already light."
