Why am not able to get to the quiz?  When I click on Gob's link I get a page like this:
It's the weekly news quiz - have you been paying attention to what's been going on in the world over the past seven days?
Click to see content: qotw_22_09_17

If you missed last week's quiz, try it here

and when I click where it says "qotw_22_09_17" all I get is a line of text (not a link) that reads ' 7 days 7 questions '.
So what's going on here?  Or do I need to be signed up with the BBC in order to access the quiz?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

It's working OK for me (836 PM Central) using Chrome on a Mac. There's no requirement to sign up with the Beeb.

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

I disagree with Bill Gates, seems to me a single keystroke to restart would have resulted in many billions of false restarts from accidental keystrokes.

Or, to put it another way, I am West Brom, Southampton, Huddersfield, Brighton and Hove, West Ham and Everton. Level pegging with the likes of Wayne Rooney.

3/7.

I never heard of most of the right or wrong answers. Guessed correctly on two of the three I got right.
