Noted, but I didn't write those questions, they were taken from the open-source MisterHouse project. If you know of any sources of free trivia questions that aren't US-specific please do PM me.
You can get a ton of free non-U.S.-specific trivia from the CIA World Factbook.
It seems like it'd be pretty easy to write your own trivia questions by permitting yourself to surf Wikipedia for a while and extract facts from the articles. What's the advantage to trivia questions you don't write yourself - just speed, or something else too?
Just speed. At two minutes per trivia question it would take a full day to make another set of 250.
