9/10, chose tobacco over railroads. Had to guess on MJ and Ayn Rand

Man, Q10 was deceptive. Good quiz, though.

First 10/10 in a long time. Knew them all except the industry one.

A Cygnet is a swan. What is a piper?

9,939 - 3rd best score of all time!

8/10, missed 6 and 8

9/10 because of a non-literary question about the wide Sargasso Sea. But if I'd even thought about Bertha for a minute I would have got it--duh.

A much better day for me today, 10/10, and 9,903. Lost a bit of time on question 9 but concluded that 1900 was too early for cars to make up that much of the market. Also, quite pleased to see less than half of people knowing Rand, an author I truly wish I could forget XD
