Fark Weird News Quiz Results (brought to you by ox45tallboy)  = ; We had another gre= at quiz this week, with a few thousand quiztakers vying for the top spot. U= nfortunately, in the end, only one prevailed. Keyser_Soze_Deat= h takes top honors with 936, barely nosing out d= er Glitzkrieg in second with 935.

Only 22% of quiztakers = knew that it was Miami/Dade County schools which was proposing this solutio= n to the high cost of housing in the area, which was causing high staff tur= nover. It seems that San Francisco teachers still have some unused refriger= ator boxes under overpasses available. The easiest question on this week's Easy Quiz was over which = American gun manufacturer had declared bankruptcy. 93% of quiztakers knew t= hat it was Remington who had filed for protections.
