    On tonight's episode of "Jeopardy!", one clue was: "This type of auto originally was used to move train passengers from one rail line to another."

    What's the question, Alex?

    "What is a station wagon?"

    You learn something every day. I never knew the origin of the term. :bouncy:

    I probably would have said "what's a depot hack." ;)
    But I don't watch game shows or football.
