CS:Let me clarify question #6. I meant as a professional. But nice attempt to keep me on my toes. ;)
#9 is correct.
I have to research later to find out if #10 is correct. If I can't find anything, I just have to take your word for it.

The first woman in space was Sally Ride? The first AMERICAN woman, yes, but the first woman was Valentina Tereshkova in 1963.
Subject: Re: First Quiz on The New Forum (I Hope)
The first Beatles album was either
'The Beatles' First Album'
'Please Please Me'
or
'Introducing the Beatles'
Depending upon where you lived.
Subject: Re: First Quiz on The New Forum (I Hope)
Okay Gore. One of them has to be right. ;)
So which one was the first to be recorded ever? ???

One of the first two I mentioned. This is very hard to determine!
BTW I still contend that the given answer to question 4. is incorrect, or else the question is misleading. ;D
Subject: Re: First Quiz on The New Forum (I Hope)
I'll give you #4 if you can post a URL that says the Russian woman was the first woman in space. But As you said Sally Ride is at least the first American female in space. ;)

Subject: Re: First Quiz on The New Forum (I Hope)
Although I didn't appreciate the tongue, Gore , I will give you credit for #4. Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Sally Ride was the first woman to walk on the Moon, wasn't she?
And sorry Dagwood. But I have to give Gore full credit on this one. :'(

No offense taken, Goreripper. ;) And I'm pretty sure the first woman on the moon wasn't Alice Kramden (from "The Honeymooners") :D
