OK, I’ll just keep the bench warm here, then. I was about to say “Well at least I got Field of Dreams”, but it looks like Bull Durham is beating it. ---

> [@Munch](#): > > Can I ask when/how “conch” became synonymous with “consensus”? Once upon a time, in the beginning of [del]time[/del] The Feud, there was a Question. The Question was, “Name a type of seashell.” The most popular answer was “conch.” It wasn’t quite a complete match of 50, but it was close. Thereafter, an answer that has an inordinate number of matches is called a “conch.” One that matches all others is called a “true conch.” [Here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=467106) is the Feud that started it. ---
