Depends on the question - 'we ought to have dinner sometime' is best answered with 'I agree, The Ivy on Thursday, pick you up at seven?', but 'would you like to come to dinner with me at the Ivy?' is best answered with 'yes' and then accepting 'excellent, see you there at half seven on Thursday'. A woman asking a man out is probably less traditionally-minded and may well take offence if her gentleman assumes the lead in planning 'her' date.

I suppose the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea can judge you. The English wiki article is not very informative but in the German it is mentioned that they can regulate between states, organizations and even individuals.

The California was "investigated" for not helping the Titanic as she sank, but I don't think anything came of it.

You all know the girl of whom I often speak of in Random Raves. Tonight, she asked me via text to call her. It was a short, five minute conversation, but we really just wanted to hear the other's voice. Anyway, is it a good sign that she had to ask me to call her, or should I have been more forward?

No, that's fine, you shouldn't be more forward. I'm not joking BTW. You don't want to make it obvious you like her until you're ready to make your move. Let her pursue you - it's to your advantage.

Cool. Btw, she knows I like her, and I know she likes me. And it's not just like. It's pretty...developed.

Just do what we all know you want to and bend her over the kitchen sink.

If a person is living alone in their own home, and that person dies of natural causes, what happens to the house, generally?

Wouldn't their will go into effect?

After the windows are opened and some really powerful fans are brought in, the heirs as specified in the will typically sell the house and share the profit.
EDIT: uh, I thought you meant if they actually died in the home and weren't found for a while. My bad.

Same thing that happens if they are living with someone else and they die of natural causes. If there is a will it is disposed of according to that, if there is no will your local jurisdictions laws on inheritance apply (in common law countries, generally meaning assets are distributed among deceadent's family, which may require a sale in order to split the value). If there are no heirs, then it generally goes to the state to dispose of however it wishes.
Of course this assumes that the estate can pay off its debts, or the house will need to be used to pay them off.
