Those weren't even hard. I missed the shoe bomber question and the unemployment one.

I remembered ten percent by associating it with the concept of the Lower Tenth

Yay - 100%....

That's one that I missed. I said Japan.

so you did not miss it, the test was buggered.

Kinda Ironic, the test was on keeping up with news, however the test did not keep up with the news.

However the survey was written when China was the largest debt holder.

Yes, but Ironic that they did not keep it current sinice it was about being current.

I agree... people are horribly uninformed and misinformed.

Mostly, I think people are oblivious.

or too busy trying to keep it together. i understand it, but it does concern me.

Betcha a dollar to a dog turd more people got the one right about Steven Colbert than how many wimmin sit on SCOTUS.

Why does it matter how many ovaries are in the court room?

10 of 12 - so I'm smarter than average BUT I still have a life.

We're going to have to take three or four (we haven't decided yet) of those points off your score, so we can redistribute them to the "less smart".

It's only "fair".

Anyone who says 'less smart' is clearly among the less educated, and likely also among the less informed among us.

I don't think that's the point of the question.

The 2 women on the Supreme Court have been in the news recently. This is a survey on current events in the news cycle based on when the survey was written.

Japan holds more US debt. I protest

I got 12 of 12, but I will admit that I cheated. I looked up these two questions. Without looking, I would have gotten the Stephen Colbert question right but only because I guessed correctly and I forgot about Sonia Sotomeyer! Duh! So truthfully, I should say I only got 11 of 12.

The only other question that I was not sure about when I answered it was where the most deaths occurred Afghanistan or Iraq. At first I thought Iraq, then I thought about it and that seemed the obvious answer but then if they had to ask... there was a trick so I went with Afghanistan.

Who the hell is Stephen Colbert anyway and why should I care?

We're talking the official party line. Otherwise it'd have been Britain.

 

[Meister]

11-12 on this end. I missed the oil consumption question. Yes, they did update the answer to Japan being the number one debt holder.
