I might have to watch this guy today & see how well he does before he gets kicked off!

NEW YORK (AP) -- Television's seemingly unbeatable answer man -- or question man -- has passed the $1 million mark on "Jeopardy!"

Ken Jennings, the whip-smart software engineer from Salt Lake City, won his 30th straight contest on the syndicated game show, in an episode televised Tuesday. That brought his earnings to $1,004,960.

He's long since blown past the previous record for a "Jeopardy!" contestant, excluding special tournaments. Tom Walsh of Washington, D.C., set that record of $184,900 over seven days last winter.

In his monthlong run, Jennings has provided more than 1,000 correct questions. "Jeopardy" contestants are provided the answer, and must reply in the form of a question.

he is really a top secret DARPA project at creating a smarter soldier, that’s why he must have started talking in binary, because he has digital radio transmitters in his brain. I bet that’s what he uses to download the answers
