Here they are. Any disagreements, please, uh ... :)

1. What we now know as Diva Las Vegas was first conceived by users
communicating over what medium?

a. AOL chat room
b. Internet Relay Chat
c. CB radio
d. ICQ

This is B, Internet Relay Chat. The old #crossdress channel on EFNET.
Talk about what eventually became DLV began in the fall of 1996.

I'm very surprised, but many missed this one, including two who are
occasionally active on the current incarnation of the channel.
(Anybody's ears burning?) :)
. . . . .

2. What was the first year that DLV did NOT take in a performance of
Frank Marino's La Cage show?

missed was D, 2001.

c. Tigger and Michael Jackson
d. Eeyore and Eeyore

As Densie pointed out to me from the first draft of this question, it
was B, both Piglet AND Pooh. However, D was also counted as correct,
since it could be said that they both made asses of themselves. :) :) :)
{ducking and running}
. . . . .

12. The correct spelling of a very nasty highly toxic liquid is:

a. Galiano
b. Galliano
c. Isobutyl nitrite
d. Dimethyl hydrazine

The only incorrect answer for this question is A. The liqueur is properly
spelled "Galliano", although "Galiano" [sic] started appearing on IRC
shortly after the incident, and made its way into the DLV mailings. :)

Dimethyl Hydrazine is, literally, rocket fuel. (Delta/Vanguard/Titan/...)

Amazingly, quite a few missed this one, even though 3 of the 4 answers
were counted as correct.

in 1997 and Riviera did not have any of us in 1998.

15. How many times has the DLV group visited the Liberace Museum?

a. Once
b. Twice
c. Three times
d. Who cares

The group has only visited once, Sunday afternoon in 1997. However, D
was also counted as correct, as this was a semi-recurring thread on some
of the old DLV lists.
. . . . .

16. One of the above questions has no correct answer.
