    But for a couple I just typed the surname and it turned out there was more than one president with that name...soo probably 16 is more accurate.

    20/44, I got every President since Roosevelt. It seems my pre WWII US history is lacking.

    Gave up with five minutes to go. 26. Not too bad considering we didn't study US Presidents in school. Would love to see what the average American score is.

    43 out of 44, there was one of the obscure mid-nineteenth century lads I couldn't think of!

    It's amazing how much the Simpsons has taught us.


    Grandpa: "Grover Cleveland spanked me on two non-consecutive occassions".

    Smithers: Mr. Burns can't stand talking to his mother. He never forgave her for having that affair with President Taft.

    Homer: Heh, heh, heh! Taft, you old dog!


    The states quiz is also a good one: http://www.sporcle.com/games/states.php

    Only got 3 out of all the Presidents who served in the 19th Century.

    Missed a few I should have know like Adams, Hoover, Coolidge, Garfield and McKinley.
