  2. "Mass suicide" - are you sure? There seem to be a lot of non-nutty people who suspect it of being mass murder.

  6. I'm having trouble finding the blogger colour to match the background.

    No one's rubbish at these - no one can be expected to know every little detail. It's more a teaching tool than a quiz.
