These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2012-02-13,
and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
by members of Footloose and Firkin Free, but have been reformatted
and may have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the
correct answers in about 3 days.
For further information, including an explanation of the """ notation
that may appear in these rounds, see my 2021-07-20 companion posting
on "Reposted Questions from the Canadian Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".

I can't get this PDF to load at all, but, given the topic, I doubt I would have gotten any of the answers anyway. I hope I didn't get any right the last time this quiz was posted.

as nobody has posted answers for this round.
