That's what the 50's were though. Most of our pop culture came out of the 50's and 60's. If you look at the title, it's geared towards the baby boomers who were growing up in that era.

Some I knew, some I guessed. I guess all the car related shows my TiVo tapes have finally become of some use

I got 80%. Am in the 92.8% percentile of Newsweek survey based on 28193 response. Woo hoo!! Awesome! I am the man! 8)
Oh Cripes - it must mean I'm old. Fuck! 
I bet Jabba and RC - the really old farts here - will get 90%+. And what about the 75 year old Ronin

Also Toyata is NOT the number one Auto brand, that is a lie.
|
apparently you were under your rock when it was announced that they overtook GM in sales.
Bitch and moan all you want but it's true.

63%, that was a tough test! Definitely geared towards American cars.
