    The saddest part is that I double checked my answers to see if there were any I marked by mistake. I found two more that I qualified for... Josh Find a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have a back-ache...

                    Identical score here.... In my case I got cheated - most of the questions were about recent inventions, not the geek toys I loved. Slide rules, binary digital clocks, photo darkroom in my bedroom closet, with foil in the cracks to block light, chemistry sets, crystal radios, homemade tube amplifiers, Altair8800, SN74180 ALUs, the good stuff!:-D RPGs in my neighborhood involved cowboys, indians, and cap guns.

It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell.' - General William Sherman, 1879
