The sewing graphic is correct but very simplistic. There are a lot of other things that go into the actual formation of a stitch (the needle design, for one, is a big deal), and the graphic is of a rotary hook, and oscillating hooks are far more common.

I repair sewing machines for a living, so you know, I know these things.

I did pretty well on that quiz.

I didn’t even have to look at then multiple choice to know a few (like Epcot).

On the location quiz just guess 1 or 4 every time and you can get all but 2 right. They should be more random.

Thank you so much for posting the Moral Instinct article! I haven’t read it yet, but can absolutely use that as a resource for a class I’m in.

On the Guess The Location thing… #4 is supposed to be the Collosseum in Greece. Someone needs to inform the owner of the test that the Collosseum is in Rome not Greece.

oh man so stoked about the sewing machine thing. I have never really figured it out. Thank you!
