	Loved this. 1 minute is so little time, but as its the kind of thing you know or you don't, its good that you can't just guess them all.

	can you make it so that the cursor goes down each one, rather than making random jumps? i missed a few at the end because of that

	absolutely loved ths quiz, particularly because you fit in Homer Simpson and Dwight Schrute.

	Is it just me or is there no "Stands For" next to Robert Lee's middle initial.

	One minute was a bit too little time -- 1:30 would have been better.

	A_Trep: It's not just you. There isn't one, for some reason. The E stands for Edward, though.

	I don't like the random order. Makes it much harder with the short timeframe.

	Note to self: check quiz time limit before beginning quiz in leisurely manner! I probably would have had time to get 3-4 more if I'd paced myself better. My fault.

	Should have added Harry Truman, just for kicks.

	First time I've ever finished a 1:00 test in less than a minute on the first try. If you'll excuse me now, I have to get some Preparation H to treat the area I pulled half the answers out of.

	@SuperSquall, I may be wrong but I think that the "S" in Truman's name doesn't stand for anything, which is why it doesn't have a period after it.

	starfish:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 17:18 GMT	31 points
	Maybe it's just me, but I didn't think J could stand for Andrew (under the Canadian-American actor)

	justbeforedark:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 17:19 GMT	3 points
	@starfish, I was about to comment the exact same thing

	Penny:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 17:28 GMT	1 point
	You can Tab then Enter to hop quickly to the next field -- you don't have to take the time to click on fields unless you want to be very specific in the order you answer things.

	@starfish - I believe the story is that there was already a Michael Fox acting when Michael J. Fox came up. Instead of using his own middle initial, he chose to be known as Michael J., as a tribute to actor Michael J. Pollard (from Bonnie and Clyde and others).

	Michael J. Fox is his stage name. His real middle initial is A.

	Really, really fun game. And unlike almost every other game, I actually like using the "skip to a random clue" function, even though I couldn't tell you exactly why. But it's a great game either way.
