    Likely the only test I could better you on, so worth documenting: You scored 94%!

    94%, but I only guessed on one question, so I'm not sure what else I missed.

    Under 100%?  What have you guys been doing?  That couldn't have been any easier.  No obscurities at all in there.

    After reading your blog over the years (and your book), I realize it's a special occasion when I out score you at anything!  94% and I believe I'm younger than you, though 30 isn't exactly young these days!  Still, while other punks were listening to Bon Jovi and Poison I was sharpening my skills on Public Enemy, Floyd, and Zeppelin.  BTW, I have done the Dark Side of the Moon/Wizard of OZ thing, so I have paid my dues to the School of Rock!

    Well, I ws going to gloat the I got a 92%, then I saw some of the scores here. Of course, since you posed the challenge as "If you're as old as I am", this brings up the question, how old are you?  (A question that first occurred to me last week, when you declared October 13th, 1953, as "time immemorial".)

    James, This post may provide some insight in to that question: http://blogs.msdn.com/ericgu/archive/2004/04/02/106596.aspx

    90% for me.  Not bad considering I prefere younger fare like Iron Maiden and Tesla. cheers, <a href ="http://cactusjuice.blog.asu.edu/">Cameron</a>

    hmmm.... That does confirm what I thought (that you were roughly my age --- although I though you were slightly older rather than slightly younger). But that does leave the question, why did memorable time start 10.5 years before you did?

    James, You are making a rookie mistake. You are assuming that there is meaning in what I wrote. I chose that date because it was a convenient date before I was born.

    82%, but then I don't consider myself a classic rock fan at all - Just an old guy with a decent memory.  74% is not bad for a young 'un like yourself though ;-)

    72%...it's worth mentioning that I'm 27. I only guessed on 2, and apparently did 20% better than most other folks my age.
