I knew the answer to that one because it was also in the BBC quiz (where I got it wrong).
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

Yes and you lose out on furry animals for taking the extra time to second-guess yourself. ;)

11 out of 12, for 451...my best score in quite a while. (Possibly because I spent two whole nights last week listening to NPR and the BBC while driving through the nothingness of rural Indiana. Trust me, it's even more boring at night than it is in the daytime.)
