Default Interesting test for Americans
Well, I passed. Got 4 wrong, but that was better than I thought I'd do.

Which one did you miss? I didn't see this on the SW board, btw, someone emailed it to me. I figured it was old news since it's an "Independence Day quiz" but I don't recall taking it before.

That's really cool. I love history, though that is not evidenced by my score....
And of course American history isn't necessarily the most fascinating...when is your favorite time? I enjoy the industrial revolution; the 1840's to 1930's or so in America.

I did abysmally. However, I made sure that I now know all of the answers! I used to daydream during history class.
