> Well, that's how I think it's done. And the way they avoid giving out the grand prize is that they make the questions cover a broad topic area. For instance, a genius would definately know on which animal Hannibal crossed the Alps, but he may not know where Monica Lewinsky's blue dress was purchased. And an idiot could tell you the name of one of the Spice Girls, but he probably wouldn't know which rights are alloted to you in the First Amendment.

I watched it last night. I knew every question asked except one, and I would've used a lifeline (and the contestant did and subsequently got the right answer). I also knew all the questions they asked the people trying to become contestants (the ones where you arrange them). However there's no way I'm calling a 1-900 number to try and get on. What a rip off.
