"General knowledge"

Sorry, I'm bored and it's half time so here's ten questions:

First one to get them all correct wins a tiny bit of respect from me :-)

1) Which is the only chemical element spelt with only 3 letters?

2) What is its symbol?

3) I was formally called Lord H, where did that name come from?

4) Which band, which won NME's record of the year in 1992, did Bob Mould front?

5) Who were the first five notables?

6) Which was the first football team to win the domestic double? (FA cup and league in England)

7) What is Homer Simpson's full middle name?

8) If a tramp needs to collect 7 cigarette butts to make himself a cigarette, how many fags can he make if he collects 49 butts?

9) Name a famous Belgian (apart from Jean Claude Van Damme).

10) What's the square root of -1?

That was meant to say Robert Waseige (Belgian Manager)
