<div>What is amazing, is that according to the results of this quiz by education level, college graduates averaged 63% correct, some college 48%, high school or less 29%. Anyone of average intelligence who can read could score an A or B (80-100%) on this test if they read the Moscow/Pullman Daily News regularly, or any significant newspaper in the US. Even college grads averaged a D (60-70% correct)! Assuming the results of this quiz reflect the national average, people are not informed of contemporary facts of critical importance by choice... Too busy with other things, don't care... No wonder W. Bush "won" the White House twice..."Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."</div>
