Aw, what a cute photo! Good ol' Jerry.

OK, I don't know how this will go over, but we'll see: There are over 160 known moons in our solar system, but only 19 are large enough to be round. Please name 4 of these 19 moons (they would also be considered planets or dwarf planets if they were orbiting the sun).

LOL,  I'll give the two I know and hope someone else knows the other two.  I believe Titan and Europa are two of the 19 moons.

Well, well, 3 excellent responses. An embarrassment of riches over here in the trivia thread!

Let's see: Titan, Europa, Io, The Moon (Luna), and Keith. I cannot possibly pick a winner. Do any of you 3 have a question that you particularly feel like asking? I say bring it on.

By the way, Neptune's moon (the one I assume your friend was thinking of, Marc) is named after Neptune's (Poseidon's) son. It is also the name of a collegiate basketball team down there in SoCal, and very close to the name of one of the moons already mentioned. (Hint: not Keith!)

Anyway, SB, Marc, galvo - one of you step up to the plate, please...

I totally forgot about our own moon, lol! 

OK I am a fan of the movie and TV show M.A.S.H.  What is the title an acronym for?

Apologies for the delay.

I classed cashmere as a wool, but the others would have been ramie, linen and bamboo.  Ramie is the oldest - the Egyptians used it.

John Pasche designed a very famous logo in 1971.  What was it and who was it for?

Some people mistakenly give credit to Andy Warhol for this particular piece of artwork.

Hmmm, in that case, I also have two guesses:

Campbell's soup label or Brillo steel wool?
