These things made from keratin will not grow after death.

Enjoyed the quiz but I think the one about vaccines causing autism may be true for some people (based on first-hand accounts from friends).

A few cases of anecdotal evidence are enough for you to discount all of science? Ok.

You shouldn't have changed it. Vaccines really don't cause autism.

As it is a controversial topic, I will keep it out of the quiz.

Deleting it is equally, if not more, controversial as you are lending credence to a thoroughly discredited hypothesis.

I know that vaccines don't cause autism. But whether I put it in the quiz or leave it out, someone won't be happy. Welcome to JetPunk.

Cool quiz! Nowadays, most informed people know that Frankenstein is the creator, not the monster, but what even Quizmaster doesn't know is that, in the book, Frankenstein is NOT a doctor, he's a student only and never becomes a doctor.

I've read parts of the novel in school, but I never knew the creator wasn't actually a doctor. Very interesting!
