Five minute timeout for OWL for being a smart aleck!  8-)

Seriously though, I think what this really shows is that the school board, or whatever they had in those days, had a much more practical outlook. They were obviously interested in people who were equipped to be productive citizens, who could handle their own affairs and who could communicate their thoughts intelligently. Those who passed this test would fit the bill, I think.

Did they know Jefferson had children by Sally Hemmings? They missed the important parts of U.S. Herstory.
