Here's an idea. Sometime, to celebrate an anniversary or something, they should have what baseball teams call "turn back the clock" week. They should build a replica of Art Fleming's set and play on that, with flip cards and pen-and-paper Final Jeopardy and old SFX and everything. Maybe the contestants and Alex even dress the part. They could even score $10, $20 and such, then just multiply everything by 20 at the end so the players aren't cheated. [/quote]
 The 40th anniversary of Fleming J!'s premiere is this coming March 30th. We know they're not going to do something like this, but if they were going to do all this, they should do what they failed to do when they taped in NYC in 1999, and that is to get Don Pardo to announce the week.

That would be fun. If by some miracle a cache of old Jeopardy episodes are discovered and GSN starts to run them, I promise I will build old-skool scoring support into the Windows Challenger, as well.
