That's cool. I like the part about the thermocline being as close as 2 meters from the surface. I'd have warm feet and a cold head! Wild.

I demand a recount. Better yet an arbitrator. Some of there answers were pretty subjective. Like what tastes better. :p

If you like quizzes...

Catwoman · 05-09-2005, 11:57 AM

Or this. I got about 45 points. Who says we know nothing about the States?

I got 12 out of 20 on the sense test. I have to agree that the taste combinations were arbitrary as hell.

Clodfobble · 05-09-2005, 04:03 PM

All they wanted you to do was choose the sweet/salty combinations. But I think it's a little silly to expect most people to know what caviar tastes like.

Elspode · 05-09-2005, 04:15 PM

It tastes like stinky, salty fish eggs...ick.

I love the little crunch when they burst in between my teeth.

How does the test know what I like on my white chocolate??? Of the choices offered, I was very certain that I would enjoy it most with broccoli.

Wombat · 05-12-2005, 10:43 PM

Caviar makes me puke (anything fishy does) so I ruled that choice out immediately!

wolf · 05-13-2005, 12:00 PM

A test. I got 14/16. It's tricky.

Might trip netnanny, but pictures are work-safe.
