This possibly-made-from-the-Mayflower barn is near Chalfont St. Giles in
Buckinghamshire. How did it get there if the ship was disassembled in
America? You have a ship. You need it to go across an ocean. Doesn't it make
sense just to sail it across, rather than take it apart and ship the pieces?

Aerobatics is a show of flying maneuvers, such as loops, rolls, etc. I don't
know if it's technically a sport, but it exists and the loops is a good
thing to help throw people off.

P.S. I scored 50%

In Q 10, why is "Bible" in quotes?I dunno, shouldn't it be?

In Q 11, is Aerobatics a sport?I dunno, maybe I'll change it to
"synchronized swimming"

Thanks.

Bible means simply a book, but is now exclusively confined to the "Book of Books." (Greek, biblos, a book.)



In the many articles about the Bible from many different reference sources at Bartleby.com (http://www.bartleby.com/81/1808.html http://www.bartleby.com/65/bi/Bible.html) Bible is capitalized but not italicized.

And the risk of being potentially inflamatory, the Bible is perhaps not a title, but a thing. However, the books of the Bible have titles, such as Genesis, Exodus, et cetera, and would therefore be italicized.

Okay. Now imagine what us writers have to go through. When I was hired to ghostwrite a book I had to follow the Chicago Manual of Style. When I write my weekly humor column it has use more of a newspaper style, but even newspapers vary. Serial comma before the "and"? Movies, TV shows and book titles in quotes or italics? It's a damned good thing they all have copy editors to make sure it conforms to what they like.

In other words....do what you want!
