I learned it from the Jeopardy! board, of course. If memory serves, it was Heels who posted it there. --Bob

This is the sort of question that terrifies me. It seems like it should be Christina Aguilera. I'd ATA, see what the spike looks like.

Let's hope it doesn't turn into a National Lampoon vacation.

Here's an article about David's appearance. It should also be considered a spoiler, for those who haven't seen the episode and are waiting for Wednesday's transcript.

One slightly spoilerish observation
Neither the article nor the banter on either episode mentioned David's previous appearance on J! and his belonging, with Ken Jennings, to the extremely exclusive NZL Club.

I'm confused. How could he be a college student in 2004 and still only be a pre-med student now? Shouldn't he have graduated to med school in the last 7 years?

Yeah, I was thinking he looked pretty young for a guy who lost to KJ in 2004. I tried to compare photos with the guy who played against Ken. It looks like the same guy, right? At least that's what it says in the J! Archive.

Looks like he graduated from Dartmouth six years ago. Still no mention of his Jeopardy history.

What the heck is a Harvard "extension school" student? Does this guy take classes from Harvard the way Annie went to Yale?
