You can't count on that show as a historical source anyhow. I saw an
episode a few nights ago where they mentioned the old myth that the Reuben
sandwhich was invented in New York city. It's well documented that it was
actually invented in Omaha, Nebraska. So you have to take everything they
say "with a grain of salt"...
