Could You Answer Some of the Questions on Thomas Edison’s Employment Test?

I've been through some pretty stressful job interviews, but this seems almost impossible!

A recent story from Gizmodo presented a list of 146 questions Edison would ask those seeking employment. The list was originally published in the New York Times.

Remember, these questions were asked BEFORE Google.

What would you do if your interviewer asked you what countries bound France? Or where the Sargasso Sea is? Can you name a famous violin maker? What about explaining how sulfuric acid is made?
