WRT Quizzes category: Notes on duplicates and additional suggestions

0) How do we look up qids?

1) Duplicate: The second block here has no differentiation in scoring. Is that intentional? If so what purpose does it serve? "qid": "6802",

2) Additional questions that are appropriate to this section: "text":"Etymology is…", "text":"Half of all policemen are thieves and half of all policemen are murderers. Does it follow logically that all policemen are criminals?",

I made a number of changes to science_spirituality.js, including addressing 1 & 2, above (note that 1 had previously been mentioned in #131) Additionally, I tweaked and/or added "text" wording to try to shake loose the inaccurate point allocation for a few questions. "shooting star" "which is bigger?" "Wherefore art thou, Romeo?"
