I scored 105 or 125 on the Tribune News Trivia Quiz.

I took the Salt Lake Tribune's News Trivia Quiz and scored 105 out 125. That qualifies me as an official news junkie. I missed questions about entertainment--the one thing that doesn't interest me much. Try it and see how you do. I'm surprised they don't have ads on the quiz--lot's of page views.

The quiz has a bug in the HTML form presenting the questions. The top radio button doesn't have the same name as the bottom two, so it's possible to select more than one answer. Of course, when you do that, the database doesn't like it very much and spits out an error. The page source also shows the SQL for selecting the question--kind of sloppy. I hope they're not running this on a system with any sensitive information because it's probably a security nightmare. Even so, it's fun.
