FWIW Funny you would say that about the fairness of the question regarding the term “quark” coming from “Finnegan’s Wake,” by James Joyce. I have never read that book, and until last night I would have agreed with you. But, last night I started a book called “Stephen Hawking’s Universe,” by John Boslough.
On page nine, Boslough writes about Murray Gell-Mann’s reference to Joyce’s book in naming quarks. The specific line in “Finnegan’s Wake” was “Three quarks for Muster Mark.”
I did not know that, and the fact that I read it last night and I read your comment tonight seems mighty coincidental, even a little odd.
I thought the test was very difficult, probably because I did know many answers (ha) - I got 35 right and guessed on about 20% of those.
In my last sentence, I should have written “did not know many answers.” I need to study the science of proofreading - or maybe it’s the Warsteiner (a tasty German beer). Yeah, that’s it.
