Do you know more about scientific concepts than most Americans? Well you can find out. The Smithsonian and the Pew Research Center released a 13 question Science and Technology Knowledge Quiz online. They took a representative sampling of 1,006 U.S. adults to gauge their knowledge. So, what were the results? Are the numbers encouraging or troubling, and do you worry for the future at all? Did you do better than Tim and I? Let me know what you think (and how you did!)
