Pete,
6 out of 11 for me too! And I just saw Blade Runner but got confused with replicators vs. replicants 'cause I'm watching SG-1!

5 out of 11. Apparently I'll be toast when the alien invasion comes (unless it's friendly )
Phil, you missed number 11? Even I got that You're probably just not old enough.

Oh Phil, you know I'm just teasing! um, Don't you? Sorry.
Then again, I have a cold and my brain feels soggy, so please accept apologies if they're needed.
And then again, I'm 54 and remember 60s rock & roll lyics and Star Trek plot lines but not where I put my glasses (and I currently have 3 pairs).

OK. not making sense. going back to bed.

Not a problem. I know a smattering of 60s lyrics from older brothers and sisters playing the tunes on into the 70s...

Only 6/11, I was worried there for a second.

On the plus side, I get to give redace1960 an atomic wedgie for being so darn geekie.

8 out of 11. Not bad, but it does prove I need to get back to my geek roots
