We had company last night and never turned on the TV! And I've been in meetings until now and haven't searched the web yet. Is he still winning?

Yep, he just cracked the all time winnings record. He still doesn't own the single day record (he tied it twice) because the two times he actually tried for it, he got the final jeopardy question wrong.

One thing you ahve to think about though is that it's only been about a year since they let people continue more than a week on the show. Not trying to diminish what he's done - that's pretty incredible, but you wonder what the record would be...

True. I'd be interested to have known that, too, because you know some guy or gal would have pulled out a three month run.
The tournament of champions should be interesting, though.
