I'll spoilerize the rest, but suffice to say that one of our most prolific posters may be sobbing after viewing or reading the transcript (if he doesn't watch regularly).
One of today's questions asked, basically, for the number of rows of stars on the U.S. flag.
Of course, they gave a lot more information, since it was an $8K question. They mentioned in the question that there were four rows of five stars, and asked how many rows of six stars. TDC, of course, contributed to the need for this contestant to Ask Ogi, who (naturally) got it right....but minus the obvious shout out, alas.
There is something wrong in a government where they who do the most have the least. There is something wrong when honesty wears a rag, and rascality a robe; when the loving, the tender, eat a crust while the infamous sit at banquets.

I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

No, and neither was Norman Mailer.
