Re: [quizbowl] Re: Thoughts on current themes

Way back when I was an undergrad, I once got a tossup on Alcibiades
because I'd heard a reference to him in the movie _Patton._  Patton was
quoting him on strategy re Sicily, which the tossup discussed.  I'd
never heard of Alcibiades otherwise at that time.  (And no, the tossup
didn't mention the movie.)  So should I give those 10 points back?
