    Default A second Science and Tech quiz

    Here's a link to another Science and Technology quiz:

    http://www.pewresearch.org/quiz/science-knowledge-2013/

    It's by the same website as NT's quiz - it's just their quiz from 2013. I got 13 out of 13; it's just a little bit easier than NT's quiz.

    A bit embarrassing to miss the electron question, given my line of work...

    That's the one I got wrong, too. Then I remembered, electrons, neutrons, protons make up an atom. Duh.

    You got 11 out of 13 questions correct (85%). Got the Hydrogen, and Natural gas questions wrong.
    Boo hoo!

    "You got 12 out of 13 questions correct (92%)."

    I missed the one on continental drift ON PURPOSE since the questioned assumed in millions of years.
    There was a question about global warming where they asked what "most" scientist believe causes temps to rise.
    so OK. i'll give ya that.
