Wow, at this rate this game will take longer than a round of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?  Maybe there should be a time limit before we figure no one knows the answer and we can go to another question?  I will take a guess...Medfield?  That was the name of the town in The Absent-Minded Professor but I don't remember if he worked at a high school or a college...
