You and I had exactly the same score, 96.67%, and we both ourscored all of the primitives.

I forget which two questions I messed up on; they're listed in the DUmpster, in the thread about the primitives boasting of their ignorance.

Do you recall what your two errors were?

Only 56/60.

Back to econ class for me!
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

It was the questions about the War of 1812 being a stalemate and the one about Alexis de Tocqueville.
