Huh? I thought the core was the center of a roll paper towels. The
hamster that powers my PC run's through when he's not generating power on
his little wheel.

Is this a legitmate question?

If so the Core is the part of the nuclear reactor where the control rods are
used. The generation of heat creates steam which in turn powers the
generators. The generators create power which allows us to run our PC's to
send these messages.

yeah. I think those things are fixed. I once saw Luke Perry or one of those
guys on Jeopardy and he was getting all the questions right. Like, he really
knows them. Give me a break. Since the money goes to charity anyway, they can
fix the game with out any problems. I don't believe it.

Get out of here. On those Celebrity Jeopardy games the questions are so easy my
9 year old knows most of the answers.

N ł Nothing has been mentioned about the woman Kramer is going to have a baby
N ł with. I think this is really important, not something that can just be
N ł forgotten until the end of the year or season. Kramer is going to be a
N ł fantastic father, a spin-off is a likely possibility. Is it Elaine's friend
N ł who is going to be the mother????

You know, it's strange. Important things happen in the
lives of these characters, and then nothing is ever
mentioned of it again. A the end of last season,
George completely changed by going against his loser
impulses. This year, he seems to be the same old
George, albeit with a job.

Kramer gets a woman pregnant, now what?

No, it wasn't a legitimate question. Jason picked the category "Nuclear
Physics" for $1000. The answer was similar to what you said, and Jason
supplied the correct question: "What is the core?" We were all surprised
Jason would know that.

He didn't cos it's a tounament. But since he did win, that means
for sure he'll be on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.
If he wins that day, then he'll be in the 2-part finals on
Thursday and Friday.

Fraid not. As well as the fact that the questions are much easier, in another
key way Celebrity Jeopardy is different than the regular tournaments. There are
15 competitors, 3 play each day. The one with the highest total from his/her
day is crowned champion. There is no showdown.
