Should we add jGpaiva to this test? (Programming language inventer or serial killer?)

By that standard, I should be pretty good. (8 months razor-free...) I do run Slackware at home, does that count?
BTW- that test is pretty funny. I took it 3 years ago and I got most of them correct, but that probably had more to do with my second-hand knowledge of serial killers than anything else. (I used to work nightshift with some interesting folks)

Only if you've been running it since 1995.

I got 7/10, not too bad for not knowing any of the killers :)

I didn't even have a computer in 1995. (come to think of it, I may have barely had a home...)

I've got the beard, but . . . the brains still haven't come.  What am I doing wrong? :)

I got 9/10 correct, not knowing a damn thing.

Female intuition, maybe?
