Why is it that no matter what color of bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?
... There actually is color in the soap bubbles. When an incoming ray of light strikes the outer surface of a bubble, part of the light ray is immediately reflected, while the other part is transmitted into the soap film. After a ray of light reaches the inner surface it is reflected along the same path that it entered. If the crest of the two waves are in sync they will amplify each other in a process called "constructive interference." It is this process that produces the iridescent colors that is seen in bird feathers, insect wings and oil slicks in water puddles.

If you dig a hole in the south pole are you digging up or down?
...You would be digging down. Directions for something like that are always relative to the person no matter where they are.

That is why this question does not work China because the term down is used as a relative term.
How come they don't add the time that we are in our mom's to our age?

Why do people squint their eyes when they can't see? Wouldn't that just make it less space to see out of?
