One word -- "kiva," spelled correctly by speller 362, Jeff Zheng -- gives us a clue about what Dr. Bailly does when he's away from the spelling bee.
A kiva is a Pueblo Indian structure used as a ceremonial, council, work and lounging room for men that is usually round and is at least partly underground and that includes a fireplace and altar.
"Visitors to Mesa Verde National Park can descend by ladder into a kiva," Dr. Bailly said. "I've done that."
