Congrats to Walks, Shay and Mr Ap. for having selected President Kennedy.  I once stood next to Kennedy while he signed an older brother's broken arm cast.  He wasn't the president yet though, just a senator.

Rikki. Just so you know. I thought it was either Kennedy or Ford so I went with Obama. Never delve too deeply into the female thought processes

No, you went with the half black mocha socialist because your bleeding heart wants free shit. Let's call a half spade for what it is!

God bless ya, Lily.

Sober up, @KSM, before you make a fool of yourself. Wait. Too late

Michelson was the first American to win a Nobel prize in a science and was appointed to Annapolis by U.S. Grant after growing up in Virginia City, Nevada. A fictional account of this was portrayed in the TV show Bonanza which was set in Virginia City. He helped determine the speed of light, developed astronomical instruments and is famous for the Michelson-Morely experiment.

Got to have some modern content, otherwise there would be way too fewer quizzes to offer.
