Geez, you guys set high standards.<br><br>I didn't know about hydrogen hydrates, and thought the cancer-cure question was a trick question -- My thinking is that all 'cures' at-best only cause the disease to go into remission -- and not all cancers are curable, or even necessarily preventable.<br><br>The test sure gives an idea of how grossly misinformed MANY people are, and esp. why.<br><br>How long will it take before people wake-up to the fact that corporate greed and radical capitalism both encourage some of the most atrocious crimes of fraud and exploitation?<br><br>Starman <p></p><i></i>

I only got 97, but having said that, for most of us that should be a low score.<br><br> All you have to do is use my now defined rule of thumb.<br><br> Take the "official" version of the truth and simply turn it on its head <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

I only scored 94%. If we're grading on a curve, compared to you guys I'm in the sheeple zone. <p></p><i></i>

It was so easy to pick the preferred response, based on the tone of the question. 100% - no problem - easy test.<br><br>This is not only a waste of bandwidth; it is an acknowlegement of one of the reptiles' favorite techniques - to make you feel good because you know all the answers. Humbug. How about we go on to a topic more worthy of this site? <p></p><i></i>

[Fearless]

Don't be so serious. <p></p><i></i>

[thrulookingglass]

88%?! Damn. Least I still have that bridge in New York! <p></p><i></i>

[Connut]

I join Jeff at the Sheeple level of 94 - probably the best I've ever done in a test for a while! <p></p><i></i>

[heath7]

94 here too! the hydrates question and the vitamin e questions threw me; the only two questions I couldn't really grasp the tone of. <br><br>The newstarget.com site looks like a good place to get lost in for a while. <p></p><i></i>

yeah, sorry to give one of these away but this is important:<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://sci-toys.com/ingredients/sodium_nitrite.html" target="top">on the one hand...</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br>Sodium nitrite is produced in the human body by the action of saliva on sodium nitrate, and is important in controlling bacteria in the stomach, to prevent gastroenteritis. The body produces more sodium nitrite than is consumed in food. <br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.jtbaker.com/msds/englishhtml/s4466.htm" target="top">but on the other hand...</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Ingestion: Toxic. <br>Can irritate the mouth, esophagus, stomach, etc. Excessive amounts effect the blood and blood vessels.
