Yes, I think it was probably John Conally (sp?), though I'm not really up on the subject. However, it wouldn't surprise me to find that some of the answers in the game were wrong. I seem to recall once getting a question about the early manned space program the answer to which I disagreed with. It was something ambiguous like "Who was the third American in space?" and the answer given was either John Glenn or whoever the *fourth* man in space (and therefore the third to orbit the earth) -- I can't remember which. I've heard that if you confirm an error, you can send the card to the two guys who invented the game, and they'll take a ball point pen, correct and initial the card, and send it back to you free of charge.
