8 answers

Why don't you put your answer at the end of EACH question? That way we can look at the question and the answer. As you've done it we must read the question, scroll to the end to find the answer, scroll back to the top for the other choices, back to the bottom to confirm the ansswer etc. It's a never ending cycle and takes far too much time for 20 questions. Also, while your at it, break the posts up. Most of the time I will pass up a 20 question post because it takes too much time to answer for a single answer.
1,2,3,4,5 are correct.
I don't agree with 8 and 10.
6,7,9 are ok.
20 is ok.
I don't agree with 19
The answers to 16 don't make sense. A and C appear to be the same but with a typo
I disagree with answers to 17 and 18.
11 is ok.
I don't agree with 12,13,14,15
Also, while your at it, break the posts up.

Bad English.
Also, while you're at it, break the posts up into smaller bits, preferably no more than 2-3 per post. That way a person who has just a little time can answer a post that would not have time to answer one with 20 questions.
