That is the list of the questions that I came with up. If you have any more to add you can comment below and I will go in and edit the post later. Also we need to decide who is doing what types of questions. I am going to leave it free for everyone to choose for now, but if the questions aren’t all distributed or distributed fairly I will assign topics for each team member, according to their background and which topics may fit best. If you would like a certain topic please comment below to claim it.
