So,

This must qualify for 'Bad Astronomy' at some level. :)

It's fake.

Which isn't to say that there aren't people that stupid out there. But this woman is not one of them. :)

This is BAUT. Got proof of that? :)
(I might go look for it on youtube after dinner.)

Edit: Alright, found it on Snopes. http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/gameshows/millionaire.asp

I'm pretty sure I've seen early questions on millionaire that weren't any harder than that!

Not as bad as what really happened on this Wheel of Fortune episode. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=hPi588QohEg&feature=related)

The snopes link had the Sun/Moon/Venus/Mars question which I found rather funny.

I recall watching wheel of fortune once where the puzzle was the phrase "It takes one to know one". A few letters were still missing, including the "I". The contestant's attempt to solve the puzzle was "E.T. takes one to know one." :doh:
