of course it is

@H0limkill No, shockingly it did not, despite being the most downloaded Beatles song to date. All of the songs that hit number 1 for the Beatles in the US or the UK were compiled on the 2000 Album "1" which is like the 9th best selling album of all time.

@H0limkill: Actually, "Here Comes The Sun" wasn't even released as a single, like so many Beatle "hits": Michelle, Here There and Everywhere, Lucy in the Sky, A Day in the Life, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Norwegian Wood, Across the Universe. None of them were ever singles.

@miken - Although the stock symbol is MMM, and the previous name was The Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, the official company name is now 3M, which does not start with M.

Could you accept Donder as a variant of Donner? (Snopes has a nice history of the name here: http://www.snopes.com/holidays/christmas/donner.asp.) One could also make a case for Dunder, but Donder is what I grew up with.

Interesting that less that 3% of people got 30 or more right, but 22% got the 30th most guessed answer. This suggests that the questions are "more independent" than the typical quiz here, which is the mark of a good grab bag.

@papke16 The title of the song is "A Hard Day's Night" which begins with the letter "A."

Well done. A nice amuse bouche. @mailman: have you figured yet why the second c-word without sucker is unacceptable?

Since when does "Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing" not start with "M"?

@gotcha In 2002, 3M officially changed their name to 3M and got rid of the old "Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company" name.

I know the song is called "A Hard Day's Night," but in alphabetical order wouldn't it be under H? Or are songs ordered differently than books or movies? That's an honest question. I really don't know.

Got Fiji but missed France? Man I'm dumb. @gopaladins: They're eanswers from the already published Carlin's 7 dirty words you can't say on TV test, so I can only assume it was on the main page at some point.

I am a champion swearer, however I am inclined to agree with @gopaladins and was surprised to see that there wasn't at least a warning of the content....blimey I'm getting old! Still a good quiz mind you.
