Which ones would you have changed in a French context? I was surprised at how the non-American posters managed to answer all the questions; there were a few I didn't know how to answer.

For example, "Should the government make cuts to public spending in order to reduce the national debt?". I answer no to the test [no to overall public spending, doesn't mean that cuts can't be made in specific sectors]. In a French context, I would have answered yes, definitely. Public spending and debt as a percentage of GPD are both significantly higher in France than in the US.

As to the questions, I wasn't sure how to answer to some of them, especially on domestic policy issues, some of which we don't hear much about outside the US.

I hate driving in the rain, especially at night. Lanes become invisible on top of it already being pitch black outside, much of my route is devoid of streetlights, it just feels like I'm driving aimlessly into outer space. I'm much more comfortable driving in the snow, it's much easier to see at night.

40C right now. 6C dewpoint.

This morning it was 30C with a dewpoint of 19C.

So today I pretty much experienced both humid and dry heat. I gotta say that 40C with a low humidity/dewpoint is far more tolerable than what I experienced in the morning.
