Another item to be filed in the 'Americans are dumb as a box of rocks' category.
Pew Research gave the linked 13 question basic science quiz to 1,006 Americans. You can take the test. I answered all 13 correctly. I am not bragging here. The quiz is very basic. The sad thing is, based on the immediate comparison results, only 7% of respondents answered all 13 correctly.
There's a link for the study conclusions which I'm off to take a look at.
