If you are my age, you might remember the Groucho Marx quiz program called, "You Bet Your Life." It played on radio and television when I was growing up. He would ask questions of a guest and they could make money if they knew the answers. It was really a comedy quiz show. One fun part of the show was they told the audience "the secret word of the day". If at any time, the contestant said that word (usually a very common word) they would win a special prize.
Now, for those who could not answer his questions correctly, he always ended with the same question for a consolation prize. Some didn't know the answer to it. Do you?
It was:
"Who is buried in Grant's tomb?"
He only demanded the most basic of answers. Can you be very precise?
