Jeopardy

I'm home visiting my parents, and my mom's addicted to TV, including Jeopardy. Today's double Jeopardy categories included "Not a Prime Minister," "Before & After" (aka Smush), and "Math & Science."

C'mon, you've GOT to be kidding me! ONE SINGLE puny little category for ALL of Math and Science? That'd be like having a category on "Literature & History" with the others being "Particle Physics," "Not a Neurotransmitter," and "20th Century Set Theory"! Gimmie a break people.

You are right in theory that I picked poor examples. However, in practice, "Not a Prime Minister" listed three last names, all sounding somewhat similar, one of which/whom was not a prime minister. It is also rare to see Math and Science questions outside specific Math and Science categories.
