Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York City, Houston: None of the above cities is the capital of a US State.

Answer: True

The statement is true. Los Angeles is in California; the state capital is Sacramento. Las Vegas is in Nevada; the state capital is Carson City. New York City is in New York State (naturally); the state capital is Albany. Houston is in Texas; the state capital is Austin. The four mentioned do have at least one thing in common--they are all the largest cities in their state.
2. Gene Cernan, Virgil Grissom, William Anders, Michael Collins: None of these astronauts has walked on the moon.

Answer: False

The statement is false. Cernan was commander of the Apollo 17 mission that landed on the moon in 1972. He and Harrison Schmitt both walked on the moon. Virgil Grissom (1926-1967) was the first US Astronaut to go into space twice. He died when Apollo 1 caught fire in a launch pad accident. William Anders was one of the first Astronauts to leave the Earth's atmosphere and travel on to the moon. Michael Collins piloted the Apollo 11 command module around the moon while his colleagues Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong performed the first manned lunar landing (in 1969).
3. Edmund Barton, Jim Bolger, Chris Watson, George Reid: None of the above has ever served as Prime Minister of New Zealand.

Answer: False

The statement is false. Jim Bolger was Prime Minister of New Zealand between 1990 and 1997. The other three were Prime Ministers of Australia: Barton from January 1901 to September 1903; Watson from April to August 1904; and George Reid from August 1904 to July 1905.
4. Clint Eastwood, Tom Cruise, Burt Reynolds, Harrison Ford: None of the above has ever played James Bond, 007.

Answer: True

The statement is true, though Reynolds claims he was offered the role in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" (1969), but turned it down. He later told the 'New York Post': "At the time I really thought, and rightly so, that Connery was amazing in the role and whoever did it would get killed".

Australian actor George Lazenby took the role for one time and one time only.
5. Ali McGraw, Marlee Matlin, Liv Ulman, Bette Midler: None of the above won an Academy Award for Best Actress in a movie made in the 20th century.

Answer: False

The statement is false. Marlee Matlin won an Oscar for "Children Of A Lesser God" in 1986. McGraw was nominated for "Love Story" in 1970. Ulman was nominated for "The Emigrants" in 1971 and "Face to Face" in 1976. Middler was nominated for "The Rose" in 1970.
6. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Burt Reynolds, Richard Gere: None of the above was considered for the role of John McClane in the movie "Die Hard" (1988).

Answer: False

The statement is false. All were offered the role. Bruce Willis was fifth choice, and took it gladly.

7. Powers, Jamesons, Bushmills, Crested Ten: None of the above is a Scotch whisky.

Answer: True

The statement is true. All are, though, Irish whiskeys (note different spelling). The Bushmills distillery in Co Antrim, Northern Ireland, claims to be the world's oldest, having been granted a license by King James 1st in 1608.

8. Rita Sullivan, Audrey Roberts, Jack Duckworth, Norris Cole: None of the above was an original character when the British TV soap opera "Coronation Street" first aired in 1960.

Rita Sullivan (played by Barbara Knox) first appeared in 1964. Audrey Roberts (played by Sue Nicholls) first appeared in 1979. Jack Duckworth (played by William Tarmey) first appeared in 1979. Norris Cole (played by William Hebden) first appeared in 1994.

By 2009, only Ken Barlow (played by William Roache) and Emily Bishop (played by Eileen Derbyshire since 1961) remained of the original characters.
9. Saratoga, Trenton, Yorktown, King's Mountain: None of the above was a victorious battle for the British in the American Revolutionary War (aka War of Independence).

Answer: True

The statement is true. All were victories for the Americans. The opening shots of the war were fired in April 1775 at Lexington and the conflict continued until November 1782 when the British and Americans signed preliminary Articles of Peace. The war formally concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Paris in September 1783.
10. Quebec City, Victoria, Regina, Edmonton: None of these Canadian capitals is the largest city in its respective province.

Victoria is the capital of British Columbia, but the largest city is Vancouver. Regina is the capital of Saskatchewan, but the largest city is Saskatoon. Edmonton is the capital city of Alberta, but the largest city is Calgary.
