I'm glad to discover that exercise doesn't exhaust my reproductive organs.

We already knew that exercising your reproductive organs damages the eyes.

It's ok, it doesn't have anything to do with science anyway, it's a memory test based on how many news sites you browse.

It's possible to apply "intelligent guesswork" which is what I did for most of the answers, considering that I barely browse any news sites at all.

Exactly. When I did that weekly quiz I usually got between 7 and 9k on that quiz, but it was easy because reading Science (including their news section, where all issues are discusses some time during the week) and other journals is part of my job.

Yes, it's a science quiz and a measure of your level of interest in reading science stuff.

I quit it. Couldn't trust a science quiz that can't spell neanderthal.

In reply to GarethSL:

Shouldn't that have a capital (Neanderthal)?

In modernised German spelling shouldn't it be Neandertal?
