I agree. Let's make it fun and friendly.

+1 on this -- i really liked original eutopia and I think we want to
move back to something looking more like that on the quiz pages.
Especially if we update questions to be more friendly referencing
source dataset and formal name would be useful (as you did
originally).

simple to do but I need to do it and test it!

Other item is showing people their user id so they can share their
