It took me like a minute to answer them.

Pretty easy, but there are some people out there that are not sure whether the Sun or the Moon is closer to the Earth....

I got 9/10 on the first one, and 7/10 on the second one. The second one is definately more interesting.

Nuts...9/10 on the second one, too. I'm a solid A- student, I guess...

9/10 on both.

I missed the #8 question on the first one, too.

And #7 on the second one.

Not too bad, I guess.

Why do I get the feeling that those that do really poorly don't post their results? It always seems it's just us geniuses responding to these threads
