Ken Jennings.....Keeps Winning On Jeopardy

I think it was Einstein who said that everyone is totally ignorant on at least one topic. Jeopardy champ Ken Jennings seems to be the exception. But, then, think about it. Jeopardy changes the rules so that a champion does not have to "retire" after a limited amount of wins. The program still awards the same amount of money. One person becomes an unlikely star and the show gets more publicity than it could ever hope to purchase. Shrewd move on the part of the Jeopardy folks. Jeopardy is everywhere. And all this comes at a time when game shows are nowhere near as popular as they once were.
