Saw one of those shows.......answers were not only funny, they were pathetic.

Q: What's the name of the large canal that joins the Atlantic and Pacific?.......

Ans: The Mississippi canal?

And all three participants were currently enrolled in college!.......and in my mind, all three made fools of themselves. It certainly doesn't say much for our educational system. But then, they all felt good about themselves..........Ignorance IS bliss!

Regards,

Knip

"The answers were funny as hell."

RL,
But the consequences of that ignorance might not be so funny, wouldn't you agree. We will have to export some of these kids to other countries to flip burgers while importing some internet savy folks from other lands. Might help the balance of trade. Riechers, just kidding.... mike
