    I played my first games of Trivial Pursuit last night, and was shocked
and appalled to find the following questions listed in the category of
"Science and Nature":     
     --What would the astrological sign of a person born on (some day) be?
     --What is the day before lent called?

    It seems that the makers of Trivial Pursuit have a rather broad view
of what "science" means.  They think that it includes bulls**t and religion.

    Of course, they might just be creationists.

p.s. I was also rather amused, on reading the instructions to see that they
     found it necessary to warn us not to force the little wedge shaped
     pieces into the little wedge shaped holes sideways.
