agreed

it's soooo sad though.
 but hell when ppl approach you out of nowhere with these kind of questions you do get confused even with easy questions like these....
but..it's sad and it is even more sad when a whole nation is considered 'stupid' by the rest of the world...or yanno what I mean.

I wonder how much is uneasiness about feeling like you're put on the spot.

I've always thought it would be kind of fun to make the most outrageously bad answers you could think of. You'd be sure to be in the clip then. The downside would be everyone would think you shouldn't be let out of the house unescorted.

On the other hand, you could end up as the President of the United States... well, they never did actually let George W. Bush out of the house unescorted.  I believe we might have found a parallel.

1)  what's the speed of light?  
2) How about when Chamberlain declared Peace in our time- which country had just been sacrificed? 
3) Or maybe something that some of the folks on the camera might have got like "who won the '69 World Series?"

Somehow, democracy does seem to work, even if TV interviewers would prefer fascism....

2) Poland

Umm, actually Chamberlain had just thrown Czechoslavakia under the bus in '38 by signing the Munich pact.  When Hitler invaded Poland in '39, that's when Britain and France declared war- and proved to be relatively toothless.

I think they stole this idea from a Canadian comedy show that had a segment "Talking with Americans" where the interviewer would ask questions about hot topics, like whether the US should agree to allow more deep sea fishing off in the coastal water of Saskatchewan.

OK, I'll admit I'm lost- and I don't understand the connection here between Poland, Czechoslavakia, and WWII.

..back to culture again. In the Uk, noting that England won the World Cup in 1966 trumps all other considerations.....
"You ran into my car!"
"Ah, but England won the World Cup in 1966"
"Yeah, they did didn't they!"
