Power of Observation

I thought I was pretty observant, but I did get a couple wrong. See how you do.

I got a bunch of them right but, I didn't to observe my final score.
I'll just round it to 26.

I assume you are using FireFox, I had the same problem. Just open up IE and use that. It works fine with IE. It just feels wrong not using FireFox though

There were some bad questions.

Which way does a fan turn? CW or CCW? Either stupid.

How many lug nuts on a standard car wheel? As many as the manufacturer puts on. There is no standard.

For that quiz....
Observant must be the new name for wasting your valueable IQ by storing useless information that will never ever benefit you, unless you are in an industry that uses it, or you suddenly find yourself on a game show.....

I do too.
Helps alot both comfort and heating bill!
Most my fans run 24/7 and when I switch from AC to heat or vice versa, then the fans get switched too.
Ofetn dont even have to use the heat, just turn the fans to push the heat off the cieling down.

Funny we just had this discusion last week at work.
