 Hmm, I am reminded of the words of John F. Kennedy at his Inaugural Address of Friday, January 20, 1961.

Well that was good fun! ...as always!
I don't suppose there's an easy way to update how many people have entered so far, is there? It was just the first thing I thought of when I submitted my answers... "I wonder how many others have entered?"
Thanks to Mike and everyone who submitted questions and especially the sponsors for the prizes!

Well done Mike (and anyone else involved in IIS in the last 3 years). Best site ever!
Love the quiz.. educational and made me remember things from my early teenage astronomy days.
Yes, Q1 was a bit curly so I pick the most relevant. I think I did well.
hoo roo

About 85 people so far.
Generally high scoring, I've noticed. A few curly ones though

I thoroughly enjoyed the quiz.
Google and Wikipedia are great resources.

Google and Wikipedia almost made it too easy, but those curly ones were what made it so fun!
Thanks to Mike and Dennis and the others for a great quiz.
Look forward to more in future

An excellent quiz. Without Google, I think I would have got the answers to 8 questions, hardly genius level is it?, (But then I'm not a genius anyway.)
Thanks to the Sponsors, the organisers, and those who set the questions, thereby excluding themselves from being able to win any of the superb prizes on offer.
