Re: Jeopardy, Watson the A.I., and Maserati

Toronto's Island airport has recently been renamed Billy Bishop Airport, after a WWI flying ace. He's the dude who shot down the red baron...(it was NOT Snoopy)
Lester B. Pearson Airport is named after our 14th prime minister, who also served in WWI in the Royal Flying Corps, and was in the diplomatic corps in London during WWII.

FWIW - perhaps more trivia than you wanted to know.... but hey, aren't we Jeopardy fans all fans of useless trivia?
