You should make a quiz predicting the future until 2099 based off of scientific hypothesis of scientists.

I'm not a big crypto guy, so maybe that explains my lack-of-knowledge here, but I was surprised by the bitcoin introduction year.

To my understanding it was the first one to get anywhere and it still wasn't until several years later that it became worth anything

Nice idea for a quiz.

I got them all bar the three IDGAFA, Bieber, Harry and Pokemon.

Impressed myself with how many I got spot on. The wife was less impressed.

Might edit the Iraq question to note that it refers to the U.S.'s second invasion. Of course, some of us should read the quiz title more carefully before typing in 1990 and 1992. : )

Surprised how bad people are at this. Many of these events are strongly tied to years in my head. Got 17 exactly, 2 one year off, and Bitcoin 3 years off.

Harder for older people. Short-term memory not as good as long-term.

Love these quizzes. But you are a bit naughty QM giving us only a 2 yr 'confidence interval' (vs 5 for the song ones) but hey this is more recent history. Thanks. More please!
