22. (one of my misses was the Campbell's Soup one, too)

Some of the questions showed the question writer's ignorance.

+ The one about water draining clockwise or counter clockwise (the Coreolis effect). This is an urban myth.

+ In one question it had "sign's" for the plural of "sign" ("signs")

+ Fans can rotate in either direction, it depends on if they are pushing the air or for exhaust (I guessed and got that one right), some even have switches to change their direction

+ Blinds can be ordered & manufactured with the draw string on either side (again, I guessed and got that one right)

Finally, since it had questions about the U.S. flag, how many U.S. States, and the Statue of Liberty (clearly a quiz geared at U.S. residents), why did it spell "color" the British way: "Colour"?

23 and I agree with 2:31 PM. The direction of the water has nothing to do with location and many fans have a switch to change direction from cold weather or warm weather.

19 but I don't see how someone could only get 7.
