Last week, Lileks researched various people from comic books and recipe pamphlets, finding out a variety of interesting things. It proves that pretty much anyone, including that grainy pre-teen from the comic book ad, can be found online. So, I thought, the same would work for 1970s game-show contestants found on GSN. Watching Match Game '75 tonight, we met Katie Heintz, a 19 year old journalism student from California. She did quite well, until she said that Dumb Darlene put a wool sweater on the leg of lamb. It appears that Katie stuck with journalism, eventually becoming Katie Heintz-Knowles (photo, center), expert on media's effects on families and children. In this time of cable reruns and the internet, nobody can escape their time in the limelight, it seems.
