DQ1) Protestant or Catholic?
I’m sorry, I meant that as a Direct Question, based on stumping you over either Gatotkatcha or Garuda. There are a few possibilities in the ranks of resistance fighters or collaborators, but perhaps you were too young or too old to be a participant.
DQ: Head of Gov’t
I was going for Clemenceau
Very good!
I am Georges Clemenceau!
Congratulations, etv78!
Sorry, missed that. (Drat.) But as you see, the answer is No. Clemenceau died in 1929.
Ah, didn’t know that. etv78 guessed the answer before you, so it’s a near miss.
Dang it! Just missed it on timing. I’m claiming partial credit for myself. 
That’s okay, not sure I’m ready to lead this game yet anyway. I can’t believe I’ve missed this game over the years. It’s a lot of fun!
I see etv78’s started a new thread here: More August Botticelli - Thread Games - Straight Dope Message Board
Well done, etv78 and Zakalwe!
I was close; I was thinking it might have been Georges Pompidou!
