Without googling, could you give a brief 2-3 sentence explanation of who Henry VIII was? (Don't give it, I just want to know if you can).
I asked 4 people at work today who he was and NO ONE KNEW. I'm starting to wonder if maybe he wasn't as well known as I had thought, or if kids these days just aren't learning anything at school.
Another previous set of co-workers failed to be able to identify (in even the broadest terms) Constantine, Mao Tse-tung, and Stalin. And when I say broad, I mean like, "oh, he was that Russian guy that killed a bunch of people." We're talking completely blank stares.
