subject: CIVICS QUIZ

TR>JM>Do you know more about civics than the average citizen? How about
TR>JM>college educators? Take the civics quiz and see how you stack up.

TR>JM>No cheating


TR>JM>http://americancivicliteracy.org/resources/quiz.aspx

TR>JB>30 out of 33, 90.91% .  I'd be willing to argue for 2 of the 3 I
TR>JB>missed. I am surprised the average is 78% .  I'd have expected it
TR>JB>was lower.



TR>I did 28 out of 33. The ones I missed were sort of `chickenshit'
TR>questions, like what FDR threatened to do when the Supreme Court
TR>declared some of his `New Deal' unconstitutional. I didn't even know
TR>they had. And one question about the Puritans beliefs. I don't know
TR>(or care) anything about the Puritans. And, like you, I'd argue about
TR>a few of the others.


I missed the FDR question but got the Puritan question.
