How much do you remember about the events surrounding Sept. 11^th^, 2001? MSNBC has an interesting pop quiz available. I have to admit, I didn’t do as well on it as I would have liked to.

I got a 65%. :P
Take the test before you read my wrong answers, cheaters. ;)
I got the following 7 (ugh) questions wrong:
1 (which senators voted against; I incorrectly chose the group with Robert Byrd in it); 3 (What happened 40 minutes after the second plane hit the world trade center – i chose the FAA response); 6 (There were two with Kissinger – I chose the wrong one); 10 (Who said ‘Politicians start wars…,’ I chose George McGovern); 12 (I chose True based on Enemy Combatants, who I suppose aren’t really ‘arrested’); 15 (Clinton administration attempts to raid Afghan hideout); and 19 (Is general heading Centcom Arab-American; I chose False.)
You know, I think we got nearly all the same questions wrong — even with the same wrong questions for most of them.
I got 75% correct! That’s at least a “C”, right? Hey… Bush graduated Yale with a “C” average!
I missed 6 of 20
