Those always look so bad, but what I've always wondered is how many they have to ask to get the worst ones which they then show you? Surely people can't all be that bad.

Yeah, I've wondered that too. I think you could make a comedy career out of going out in public with a microphone and a camera and putting these interviews up absolutely verbatim and unedited, though...

Why most Canadian's can name all Provinces they have.They only have 10 to remember.

Why most American's cannot name all States they have, they have 50 to remember.

50 is a lot to remember, sure it's easy when you practice but the reason why the majority can't name them all is because it isn't necessary knowledge that will help them. If they wanted knowledge to travel and know the names of different states, they can just read a map.

Well this Canuck got 44 in about 5 minutes. Missed NH. Deleware(How? 1st state). Iowa. Neb. Maryland(don't know how I missed that one either). And Montana.

i got like 10/50...
