So far?It pits Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter and a computer named Watson.I 'll open the discussion by saying it was really different.Any comments on Part 1 of the 3 day challenge?

It was inevitable that Watson would win the whole shebang,(and it did),but one thing I do NOT understand:In the end credits,it said "Portions of the program not affecting the outcome of the game have been edited."Why ?(This disclaimer was used at the end of all 3 games.)
