Details

Question 1044. Now, I would like to ask you a few short questions like those you might see on a television game show. For each statement that I read, please tell me if it is true or false. If you don't know or aren't sure, just tell me so, and we will skip to the next question. Remember true, false, or don't know. h. The continents on which we live have been moving their locations for millions of years and will continue to move in the future. (Is that true or false?)
