think you wouldve gotten it sooner if Q11 was before 1850 instead of 1900.
dno if i answered Q8 well. my reasoning was that he studied a lot of chemistry, even went to US for 4 years to study it and he was elected a member of Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1884 but he was essentially more of an inventor/engineer and a businessman.

Fwiw, I would say in Sweden he's known as an inventor first, for his business/production second and as a scientist third. I think answered that question correctly.

WP legend (and everyone else), I should've been the one figuring that one out

Thanks for the game enty!

Good job, guys. That came to me from like the 5th grade I think, when I answered "Karl Marx" for who invented dynamite for some reason. I briefly thought about Marx here (as a social scientist....but German and known for his writing) and then Nobel popped into my mind.

Thanks enty! I'll jump into the current one when I get caught up with work.

Isn't asking if it's in North or South America to vague if it's a place like, for instance, A Casino is a place, therefore it can be in many different regions? Just a thought.

NVM- I'm probably leveling myself

You mean like McDonald's can be in different regions? In that case I would say McDonald's isn't a place, but a franchise. One specific McDonald's restaurant would be a place.

Anyway, what I'm thinking about is a physical place in one specific location.
