If I dont get a good answer by monday I have a lunch time clean up (long story). Am I crazy or is that an impossible task to set (especially for an 8th grader). 
Perhaps you've answered your science teacher's doubletalking question best in commenting that he's not the brightest bulb in the box. His question translates to the question of 'Why?', squared, applied to FILL IN HERE, squared? You might try asking him to rephrase his question, or, perhaps reply with 'Why do you ask?' ('Why' tends more toward theology than hard science)
Re: 'Why?' is a good question, sometimes. -
