Missed two. I have never even heard of the name, Haym Solomon. Total guess there.

I don't believe he was asking what the answer was; he just wanted to know if anyone actually knew the answer without guessing.

Obviously me :wink:

In the rest of the story, seems only about 17% or so of Americans pass this quiz. So there are one of two things happening here. either
A.) BPers are very knowledgeable compared to the rest of the country :groove: , or
B.) Only four of us passed the test (17%) and the other twenty* (83%) that have taken it just didn't want to announce their scores. :!
I believe the real answer is A!

*Er, that would include: sandgk and FCollinsBuckeye so far. :biggrin:
Or C - those two wanted to keep their scores on the QT to be modest.

19 correct, anybody really know number 20?
From the scores everyone posted, I'd say most of us... :biggrin:

I also guessed true on the Jewish financier question-never heard of the guy before.
Well, most of most of us - some did guess. :!

Luckily stxbuck isn't a teacher in real life ... er, nevermind.

the Jay question is very tricky-he must not have been on the SC very long, b/c he was SecState under Washington as well, I believe.
No, but prior to being Chief Justice, he was one of Best Buckeye's 14 elected Presidents. After his stint as CJ, he was governor of New York.

You're probably right. (and you know what they say about people that talk about themselves in the third person, don't you?) :)
