I scored a 12; it said I don't even have a bubble. I'm still not sure if that's good or bad. :)
I'm in the same group as you, Bob. But does this guy really recommend that we watch Oprah and hang out with smokers?
@Walt Taylor: Garbage In, Garbage Out, as early computer programmers used to say. The study says more about the prejudices of the elitist academic who produced it than it does the people it ostensibly surveys.
Wow, Robert. I didn't plan on getting into our differences here, but your own prejudices have skewed your view. First of all, this silly little quiz was certainly created by some minor-league hack, not an "elitist academic". But it was based on a book by the conservative Charles Murray, who also wrote "The Bell Curve", which you may recall greatly riled liberals a few years ago. I recommend you check the link on the page you cited. But I always recommend that.
