PETER'S TRIVIA! Day Two.

[peterchayward]

I normally hate trivia, but I have been obsessed with the idea of writing trivia questions entirely from my existing knowledge (ie without research) (except to check that they're right). Here's the second day of my 5 Days Of Trivia - without googling or checking the comments, answer as many of these as you can. No cheating

1) Is it John Gilmore?
2) Tony Abbott, but I don't know the Costello
3) no idea
4) I feel like I should know this but don't
5) no idea
6) Some time in the 1890's?
7) I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but there are a few ways. A constitutional amendment would alter how the electoral college works. Alternatively, if no candidate gets a majority of electoral college votes, the runner up wouldn't necessarily be the VP since (if memory serves), the US House would select the president, and the Senate would select the VP.
8) They didn't have stirrups.
9) Delaware
10) no idea
