Never with quotation marks, and especially considering the show's leading article rule. "Chain" is not going to be a correct answer with "Chain" in quotation marks. (To say nothing of the fact that this is a teen tournament and Rumours came out 25 years before most of the people in this tournament were born.)

This material was probably appropriately challenging for teens. I blew threw it (as most grown-up J! fans should) with ease. 47 right, 3/3 on DDs, instaget FJ. And yet this doesn't even make the top ten list of reasons I wouldn't mind being a teen again. But that's another story....

Great job by these three. Hope the rest of the tournament is this high-quality. Congrats to Claire for moving on and to Tim and Autumn for first-rate performances, academically and personally.

Did the Jeopardy! clue crew screw up? Spain used the Peseta. Unless they used the peso long back.
