I'm new, and I played the trivia quiz last night. I got the first two answers correct. Then I got the question "What was the first motorway in Britain?". My answer, the Preston Bypass, was labeled "Incorrect". Well, here what it says on every relevant site I've found: On 5th December 1958 the Preston by-pass was opened and was Britains first stretch of motorway. http://www.madeinpreston.co.uk/Road/M6.html
I know that the correct answer could also be M6, because the Preston bp was a part of M6, the first part opened, but both should be correct.
Then the next question was "What's the name of a cancer causing substance? My answer was: Carcinogen again, this was labeled "Incorrect". But on the net, here's what every reference says: A carcinogen is any substance, radionuclide, or radiation that is an agent directly involved in causing cancer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcinogen
Don't worry, I'm not going to sue or jump off my roof, and I probably won't even lose THAT much sleep. I just wanted to point this out. And, even though it seems like these answers really ARE correct, I realize it's possible that I misread something, that it was a trick question, or there was more than one correct answer. Thank you.
