I still think your dream is the best I have ever heard.

And the quiz is very interesting, though I like your additions as well. I remember doing something like that when I went with my youth group to Appalachia - we had to like step forward and step backward for different statements like that, and then at the end it was interesting to look around and see how, even within our own relatively homogeneous group, there was a difference in privilege based on factors over which we had no control. But then when you compared it to the people in that region, basically the most underprivileged in the nation, we were miles ahead. In conclusion, I'm going to take your quiz sometime when I don't have to wake up in seven hours.
