[quote name=\'Mrs. GameShow\' date=\'Jul 1 2004, 10:08 AM\'] There is a wonderful foreward written by.... I'll save that as a surprise. All I will say is he is a well loved game show host.

"IS" as in one STILL ALIVE today?
How long ago was the foreward written?

Hmmmmm.... TODD NEWTON?

If I had to take stab at it...I would guess Alex Trebek. Since he was the Classic Concentration host and I am sure friends with Steve Ryan who created the rebus' and is/was partners with the author Fred Wostbrock.

It was written about 6 weeks ago. This person is very much alive!

Could there also be a tribute to another classic game show personality? Hmmm!!!

What's the highest bid for the information?

I'll put in my two cents and say it is a famous brother or brother-in-law who guest hosted a show that his brother and brother-in-law also hosted.

Hmmmm . . .

Well, that certainly narrows down the possibilities!

I would think it would be a game show host who has been
around a LONG time. One who is familiar with the shows of
the 50s and 60s, as well as the current ones.

My guess is the foreward is written by Bob Barker.
He seems like a pretty well-loved game show host.
But writing a tribute... to someone ELSE???

I was wondering if anybody was going to use "Bob Barker" and "well-loved" in the same sentence without a hint of irony.
