Oh, and before we get going, I'm going to kill off the potentially Dobies:
"Are you an Australian?" "Bist du Austrian?" "Are you a Raelian?" "Are you an Ostrich?" ---
So this school asks 25 economics questions, and provides 4 possible answers for you to agree with. It is somewhat biased toward the "Austrian School" of economic thought, being hosted by self-avowed Austrian School believers (who "helpfully" provide links to educate yourself and answer appropriately). Also the answers are fairly specific, and I found myself believing a premise of an answer, but disagreeing somewhat with the subsequent conclusion. Also, the Socialist answers are more or less a mish mash of the Socialist movement, with many of the answers taken more from socialist slogans than from any more scholarly (if it exists) marxist economic thought.
With all of the above disclaimers, I still think it is fun, educational, and a great way to start a new debate.
I was not surprised to be as Keynesian as I was, but was surprised that I was almost as much Chicagoan. I had 2 socialist answers, and maybe one Austrian answer.

What is strange is that I have been having a random conversation about this for the last couple days with a older guy who works in another department who saw me reading Wyrms in the cafeteria at lunch and actually knew who OSC was.

I read one and a half questions and then my eyes glazed over and I went to see if there was a new Strong Bad email. There was.
