    Should we post the answers to all of the ones we know or give others a chance by only answering one?

      Give your scores first, it's just a bit of fun to turn the brain cells over for those who remember the 1960's.

          They say if you can remember them you weren't there, well it's a bit hazy in places and quite a few days were lost completely, but I was definitely there.

            What I don't remember are the '70's but they tell me I had a lot of fun.

            On #10 should the question be 'What' was blowin' in the wind?

                Your response affected my 'answer' on #10 but I don't care. He's not my uncle.

                    10)Who was "Blowin' in the wind" in 63?

                    For #10 I thought the answer was 'the answer'. 'The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind. The answer is blowing in the wind.' Bob Dylan's song.
