	Crazy that Apple exceeds Cisco and Chevron now. Google is right there with Apple too (within a billion).

	Ford, General Motors, and Dow Chemical are all based out of Michigan and are far larger than Kellogg.

	Hahaha... somehow I didn't even see Wellpoint. My wife works for them.

	Market value is a pretty lame measure of what the largest public company is. If you look at the Fortune 500, which is based on revenue, Chevron and GM are well ahead of Apple and Kellogg, respectively.

	@budleno- you're right about Ford and Dow. Ford's share price has nearly doubled since the quiz was made. It's been changed now. I haven't updated the rest of it though. But GM is not listed any more as it's majority owned by the Dept of Treasury, which in fact makes it private. @johnlk- I disagree but I guess it's just a matter of preference.
