One Long Palindrome 2 by Sijnaanik

Quiz Description

The answers to this quiz form one continuous palindrome. It's exactly the same concept as the first such one I did recently, which was inspired by the same idea over at LearnedLeague. The single most important reminder is to ignore all articles, spaces, punctuation, capitalization, etc. Due to the palindromic nature, grading on this will be quite strict, I'm afraid. For more complete instructions see the previous palindrome quiz: http://alpacafarmtrivia.herokuapp.com/quizzes/1831
