(Los Angeles-AP) -- Utah software engineer Ken Jennings makes an unprecedented 29th appearance on the syndicated quiz show "Jeopardy!" tonight.
So far, he has won 920-thousand, 960 dollars and when he's asked how he does it, Jennings cites a curious mind, good memory and astute buzzer technique.
He says he's always been interested in a lot of different fields -- not just computers.
He was a member of Brigham Young University's College Bowl team in the 1990s, and he writes and edits literature questions for the National Academic Quiz Tournament.
