Thumbs up Chacha

Can you guys stump ChaCha? This is a free service that a buddy of mine showed me the other day, call 1-800-224-2242 and leave a message with a question and the answer will be texted back to your phone number automatically. They must have a bunch of cloned skippy's locked up googling these questions and sending the answers back.
I tried to stump the damn thing but can't. Give it a try

I get shitty answers from ChaCha all the time.

Anyone can sign up to be a "guide" and answer questions. I used to do it back when they paid $.25 a question, but they cut it down to $.10 and I quit.
