Let me know how you do.

That's pretty good.

What stumped me was the question on Plato and Socrates. I thought they were members of Pink Floyd.

Proud to say I got 100%. And I did not even look any question up. I admit I guessed on the Plato one. I also half guessed on the Lincoln election issue one. Lincoln would never have been elected on an outright abolition platform so I guessed the election issue would have been about new states.
