Readers of this site and fans of the long-running television game show Jeopardy may have been quick to hit the buzzer recently when they saw this item flash up on the screen:

"In 1957, the ABA, this group, acknowledged the debt U.S. law owed the Magna Carta & erected a U.K. monument."

The correct question is, of course, "What is the American Bar Association?"

The ABA reference was part of a Jeopardy category on the Magna Carta, and the correct question was worth $1,000.
