  1. Do you know more about science and technology than the average American?

    Well, at least I was technically right.
     
  2. I missed the gas one too. For some reason I though the most common element in the universe was more common in our air.

    Aren't you a teacher? How can you not know the nitrogen one?

    Nitrogen is fairly inert and is colourless and odourless and makes up approximately 70% of our atmosphere.

    13/13 btw

    I thought he wasn't allowed around children any more?

    Tsk, so you can't see or smell it? Seems like you science fans just have FAITH it exists.

    I got 12/13. The one I got wrong was the one about which gas makes up most of our atmosphere. I was going to say nitrogen but for some reason I changed it to carbon dioxide. Admittedly I wasn't sure on a couple. I'd never heard of fracking before but I knew coal and diamond were mined, not fracked.
