You might want to think about making this a blitz quiz. Looking how over 70% got all the answers right, it might just be interesting to see how fast people think and how quick people type under these circumstances with these hints. Great quiz anyways!

At two minutes this is a pure typing test for some (at least one)of us. There are about 450 characters to type, so it needs 45wpm at 100% accuracy.

I like the amount of time. It took me 4 tries to figure out it's best to look ahead than to keep my eyes on the answer area.

@smartster: There are other name the states quizzes that don't require fast typing. This is a nice variation.
