Lack of knowledge perhaps not intelligence.

Intelligence and “how much you know” are not the same thing. Intelligence is a relative aptitude to learn and process information. A lack of knowledge in certain areas is not an indicator of intelligence.

Hi, speaking of Salt, the reason it was so valuable in olden times was not because it was used to enhance flavor but because it was crucial in two parts of daily life: storing food (which was salted -- like pork) and cleaning. Salt or sodium is known to effectively kill germs and bacteria. This is also the reason sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) was the first form of tooth paste and can still be used today. The only reason it isn't is because most commercial toothpaste also includes fluoride, which is thought to strengthen tooth enamel.

I always remembered it from when I was a kid, the Stalactites were on the ceiling, so they were held there "tight". Stalagmites were sticking up from the ground because you "might" get one up the butt if you tripped and fell on it. I know, it's a dumb way to remember, but it works!

On this 81st round of the Ultimate Trivia Quiz, I scored 48/50. I missed #7 (I misunderstood the question), and 34 (Marine le Who? ). I had a lucky guess or two in Round 5. I felt that a few of those could go either way and I had to pick the best answer. For the bonus, those icicle-like things are called stalactites. I was taught to differentiate the stalactites from stalagmites because stalactites hang "tight" to the ceiling. As far as Round 5, I'm not really a fan of vocabulary questions in a trivia quiz. It's alright on occasion, but I'd prefer to not have a steady diet of them. Regardless of my feelings about Round 5, Shaun, know that I appreciate the work that you put into this quiz, as well as all the other quizzes that you post. Thanks!

This is NO test of Inteligence but of Knowledge !!!!!

Did well except for face recognition. I would have scored a 37 instead of a 31. However, MUCH fun! Stalactites. We learned this in school: Stalactites have to hold on "tite" so they won't fall, and stalagmites "mite" fall over if they're too lopsided.

Stalactites. I've got Harry Hill to thank for knowing that. You have to have a system!

Stalagmites. Only Einstein. I didn't recognise many of the faces but I did learn a new word.

StalacTites - T for top. StalaGmites - G for ground [learned that 60 years ago...still works- Thanks for the brain rumble!
