What personalized license plate does Ned Flanders have on his Geo station wagon?

Through the discussion threads on the Jenkins article I linked yesterday, I located the writer David Buckna, who authors quizzes on religious references in and connections with pop culture. Many are not online, but here are some that are: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Johnny Cash, Lord of the Rings, and The Simpsons. These appear regularly in the Calgary Herald. Really interesting idea.

This also reminds me that at one point I had thought a similar quiz, with a name drawn from among those who gave all correct answers, would be a good way to give away a promotional copy of Get Up Off Your Knees.
