I want to give you credit, but you didn't say
"The answer is Hitchslap"........
I also would have accepted " The answer is Christopher Hitchens". Has nobody ever watched Jeopardy?
Fine, ok, since we are all not making a dime of this, Val, give us your new question, make one up.
Jeopardy? That's that weird gameshow, right?
The answer to your question is the late, great Christopher Hitchens. The inventor of the Hitchslap.

Clue, he also said upon the death of Jerry Falwell about Jerry Falwell, "If you you gave him an enema you could bury him in a matchbox."
THE ANSWER IS… Tuff O'Gherkin, author of 'The History Of The Andalusian Pickle Tree.'

Val got it right but didn't answer with "THE ANSWER IS"
Love the red bold though. Nice touch.

Mediterranean Island?
The only European eruption I know of in 79CE is Vesuvius. But that's on the Italian mainland.
My question was lost on the previous page.

While you're waiting, the answer is...it's a trick question (Vesuvius isn't on an island).
