I think this is true. I&amp;#39;m a member of a Jeopardy! forum and there was a Final Jeopardy about Nyad not too long ago. Plenty of people commented that they&amp;#39;d never heard of her, and these are people one would assume are paying more attention to the news than your average Joe on the street. I was a little shocked, to be honest.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Diana Nyad</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/189541?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 06 Mar 2014 01:12:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:2aba3624-a1e7-4b3d-a544-e15454cd6111</guid><dc:creator>knelson</dc:creator><description>And she gets to wear a special dress...&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Diana Nyad</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/189529?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 05 Mar 2014 09:17:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:92f488ae-e928-453c-a055-45a705f3e9de</guid><dc:creator>flystorms</dc:creator><description>I just can&amp;#39;t imagine her on this.
