I would have been very embarrassed had I been on stage on Thursday. "Oh, that's easy," I thought, "I've seen the opening of Lawrence of Arabia. It's T.S. Eliot." And I very probably would have written down "T.S. Eliot" instead of "T.E. Lawrence" with nary a second thought and would've kicked myself very hard for a very long time. The fact that I definitely would not have written "D.H. Lawrence" by mistake would not have been a consolation.

Side note -- it's listed in the poll as a $2000 clue, but was a $1000 clue in the Jeopardy round.
Fixed, thank you.
