Research Question

Why is it bad luck to mention the play Macbeth?

Supposedly, saying the name "Macbeth" inside a theater will bring bad luck to the play and anyone acting in it. The only exception is when the word is spoken as a line in the play. In order to reverse the bad luck, the person who said the word must exit the theater, spin around three times saying a profanity, and then ask for permission to return inside.

Mihailo, it is good that you are ensuring that you respond to all parts of the task now; however, it is very difficult to read your responses the way that you are presently formatting them. Perhaps you could put the task in the box you are typing in but delete each part as you answer it. This way, you still have it in front of you as you go so that you know you aren't missing anything but you have a better flowing post at the end. You also need to make sure that what you write makes sense without the question there.
