How did he pass his theory?

ha ha what Von said'

It aint got anything to do with the type of head. Its whether the thread runs all the way up the shaft or not. Bolt the thread runs up to the head on a screw it stops part way.

Anyone else got any sad bits of trivia they would like to share with us?

A bolt threads into a nut whereas a screw threads into the material to be fastened.
