I am not a scientist, but I am a pragmatist. That means that, as I followed Ben's link to the quiz (which was actually a link to the list of correct answers) rather than Lori's I got 50/50.The genesis of the "evil Finn" concept- Evil, evil Finland

Tied Lorizael.
You may have an opinion on climate change, evolution education, stem-cell research, and science funding. But do you have the facts to back up your opinion? This quiz will test your basic scientific literacy.
Missed the Watt/Joule question, the RNA/DNA base question and the climate question.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

Half of the questions are moronic anyway: what does it matter with what letter you denominate lightspeed. You need to know it is constant in vaccuum. That is all...
Edit: Also, I'd say that more important than the fact that it is constant in a vacuum is that it is measured to be the same in all frames of reference.Last edited by Lorizael; May 4, 2012, 06:48.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Indeed, but if it's so annoying that a substantial number of people don't finish the test at all, then they might have been better off going for a less cumbersome setup.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.
