	I did like it, but I totally whiffed at UTU ... I was going through all of the common sites...Google, YouTube, Weather, Wikipedia, Yahoo, etc...... Just failed to recognize YouTube (even though I kept repeating it to myself)...D'oh

	Can't believe the "Aborigine Name for Ayers Rock" isn't there! Uluru! (Works for L and R!) Nice quiz though!

	A really tricky one could have been HULU... :) Great quiz!

	For ULU I was thinking Duluth.

	Never knew that that was a qualification for running a harem.

	Mr. Burns: "Are you familiar with this state's strict usury laws?" Homer: "U-su-ry?" Mr. Burns: "Oh, apparently I just made up a word that doesn't exist."

	A colloquium is not an academic conference. It's a one-off lecture given by one person.

	Scrimgeour is misspelt.

	Thank goodness for my username.

	Eunuchs could be "trusted", since they no longer had their libido.

	Sit Ubu sit. Good dog

	Sorry, beanyk, but that's not what my dictionary says. Plus, your definition doesn't make sense with the word's derivation (from "to speak with" in Latin).

	If you got Bujumbura but missed cucumber, like I did... you just might have spent too much time on Sporcle.

	One might argue that clouds that look like cotton are cumuli, and _a_ cloud that looks like cotton is a cumulus.

	Great quiz. Never heard of colloquium, but it's good to have a few tough answers. I agree with Zak, though. There could have been a much more salient clue for eunuch. For instance, a man who lost his two best friends (and not his pals in the Winnebago).

	The word ululate needs a better PR department. Next stop, missing out on the quiz "synonyms for howl."

	OK, I checked my dictionary and it says colloquium is "an academic conference or seminar". I maintain however, from attending (and occasionally giving) many of the damn things in several universities, that "colloquium" almost always means "seminar" --- given by one academic, with questions from the audience afterwards. I accept your etymology, but etymology doesn't always tell you the actual current meaning, just what it originally meant.

	Inaugurate doesn't really mean to swear someone into office, but rather it is the beginning of something, sometimes the beginning of a term in office. The swearing into office can signify an inauguration, but does not define it.
