No kidding. When I took my "exam", the civic questions were:
- who is President of the US
- who is Governor of Florida
- can you name one of the two Florida senators
That's it. And to prove my knowledge of English, I was asked to write on 
a piece of paper, "I work for an electric company" (which was the case 
at the time).
