Around 5:55 p.m., on my way to a dinner meeting this evening, I had my car radio on "scan." I heard what sounded like Caribbean music with some DJ with a Caribbean accent yelling over that. Sounded different, so I stopped the scan to listen - to Choice 102.9 (which I'd never heard of before).

Turned out to be a call-in quiz. Whoever could correctly identify "a nation that most people think is a big mistake" and the year of its founding would win a prize.

The correct answer: Israel and 1948. Oy, gevalt.
