Published-text verification notes
- Question 2 visibly spells the surname “RUIMNER.”
- The supporting source article spells the surname “Ruminer.”
- The archive preserves the quiz spelling in the transcription and records the discrepancy as a known published error.
- Extra-credit option D is published as “PITTSBURG, PA” without the final h used in the Pennsylvania city name Pittsburgh. It is a distractor and is preserved exactly as published.
