--- Quote ---Are Louie's survey jokes (Example: \"We surveyed 100 vacuum cleaner salesmen who told us how much this question sucked\") written on his card as well?

I wouldn't be surprised if they were.


--- Quote ---Also, are these cards typewritten or hand-written?

The example in the Fabe book was typed in Orator, that big small-caps font.  I would venture that during the heyday of the IBM Selectric, almost every game show used that font for the question cards and for scripts.  It also had a question number on the top.

And we did see the back of Louie's card on occasion (the Fast Money card)--it looks like the questions were typed in Helvetica or Arial, cut from regular paper and pasted onto the card.
