Are you asking because you don't know or are you testing us?

I'm asking because I know his name is on the display but I can't remember what it is off-hand.

To be honest I was asking because I didn't know but I thought I'd phrase it as though it were a test. As a newbie-come-lurker I was worried I might not get an answer if it were an honest enquiry.

Anyway, Sir Roger. Now we know.

Still: a nice picture for us all to enjoy too, I reckon. Elephants are cool.

Why did you think you might not get an answer if you posed it as a serious question?

We are a friendly bunch, honestly!

We always try and answer questions if we can.
