I think the quiz was LSL1. You just pushed alt-x (or maybe ctrl-alt-x) to skip it.
LSL2 had the "little black book" with phone numbers. You could type 555-0724 IIRC and get in.
The real answers to these things were in the box, you weren't really expected to know that much about dumb stuff, this was just novel forms of "copy protection" to make sure you got the game (and everything with it) instead of just a copy from a friend...
Weird how you can remember these little things from Sierra games: 6858 was the code to disable the Star Generator in Space Quest 1.
