	good idea, but way too specific for the answers. i knew most of the dates, but i couldn't figure out what you wanted me to put. also, for 9/11, the date isn't really an answer or description of the even. it should be like "terrorist attacks on the us" or "world trade center, pentagon attacks" or something like that.

	I second that. These quizzes require a lot of possible answers. I tried about 10 different things for the Powell at UN one.

	i'm not saying you did a bad job, but just consider how a quiz will work when people take it the next time you make one

	Hey does anyone know what happened on September 11, 2001? I do! September 11 happened.

	Like everyone else, I was very frustrated. The Bush/Gore one in particular...I must have tried every combination of Bush and Supreme Court before it occured to me to add Gore in and axe the court (now there's a Freudian slip if ever I saw one...wouldn't I have loved to have axed that court!)

	Maybe it should be changed to most important dates for USA? All America focussed except tsunami. I know Newsweek is an American thing but still surely there have been more important things in other countries?

	I agree with the above comments about specificity. For example 'terror attacks' or 'twin towers' for answer one. I also agree with Lucy. There were gay marriages in other countries before for one, and others, whilst obviously important, are not perhaps viewed with such primary importance for the rest of the world. The fact that its Newsweek doesn't help as newsweek have international services.

	More options for answers, e.g.: "lehman brothers fails," "afghan war begins"

	For September 15, 2008 I tried "Lehman Bros," "Lehman Brothers," "recession," "economic downturn," and even "stock market crash." None worked. Sooooo......
