I'm 34 and got 15 right. If I'd gone with my gut on a couple of them, I would've gotten 17. I do have to point out an error with #2. The correct answer could actually be Cassius X (the name he had for a very brief time before taking Ali)

Great test. I got 19/20 Missed number 17, maybe we were doing something other than listening to the music. I can't remember what it was we were doing. I guess that makes me old!
