Blindstruck
editI don't believe that 'blindstruck' was a word. It didn't show up in the dictionaries I checked (including wiktionary) and the first of only 40 google results was this page. Therefore, I changed it to awestruck. MrCheshire 22:10, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Trivia
editI deleted a line of trivia that was superfluous as it mentioned the first appearances of characters, which has its own heading already. It also falsely claimed that this episode was Rainier Wolfcastle's first appearance (at least, it is claimed that "Bart the Genius" is his first appearance by that episode's wiki, and also on the Ranier Wolfcastle wiki).

Inspirations of Springfield High School
editThe building looks similar to Peoria High School in Illinois. Check out the school's website 70.48.237.115 (talk) 01:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
Did America really slow down?
editIn this this episode Homer disagreed about the idea of lowering the US national speed limit to 55 MPH. Did this happen in real life? This article doesn't say.(Tk420 (talk) 17:42, 9 March 2008 (UTC))
- Yes, it did. There's even a wikipedia page on it, but I'm too lazy to make a link. --71.172.37.93 (talk) 22:51, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Don't Be A Baby Lady?
editWho Sings That Song? I haven't found it yet and it isn't listed on the soundtrack for this section? Lasttiger (talk) 21:53, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
title
editthe article needs to explain the reason why creators chose a grammatically incorrect title. Nergaal (talk) 14:54, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Why? It's just a parody of The Way We Were. TheLeftorium 17:21, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Shouldn't that reference be used in the article and a mention of 2004 episode The Way We Weren't? FM [ talk to me | show contributions ] 10:43, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
