The Brooklyn Bridge's support towers contain wine storage cellars below the water line. They were utilized by New York's 4 & 5 star restaurants before 1920 to store excess wine. Prohibition closed them and they were never opened after repeal.

360 DEGREE RAINBOW
Did you know a rainbow is actually supposed to be a full circle? You usually can’t see the full circle because most of the time the rainbow lies beneath the horizon. There is no rain and weather underground either. But in special circumstances, as seen in an airplane one can make out the full circle. Typically it’s when an airplane is overlooking a waterfall or sea.

Re: Little know facts
"Each day, there are over 120 million acts of sexual intercourse taking place all over the world." - Botham, Noel. The Mega Book of Useless Information
If left alone, 70% of birthmarks gradually fade away. (Can't find a source for that one) I bet that character from Hawthorne's short story about a birthmark would feel like a real dick knowing that one.
A credible neuroscientist claimed that the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus has synapses from projections that receive input from photoreceptors in the human back. I have never found evidence to support that claim, and the man was too intimidating for me to ask after the lecture.

I saw a 3/4 rainbow my first day in Hawaii years ago, on Maui in Kapalua. It was a great introduction to the islands.

Is that why Jamaican homophobes use the term 'batty boy' for gay men?

Re: Little know facts
So few? The world population is around 7 billion. If half are too old or too young, that would leave 3.5 billion. Sexual intercourse obviously requires two people, so if those 3.5 billion had sex every day there would be 1.75 billion occasions. If my maths is right (unlikely!), the figure of 120 million suggests that the average person within the half who have sex does so on only around 7 days in every 100.

Re: Little know facts
Maybe mostly sexless places like Japan knock down the numbers, but I don't know of enough places with "celibacy syndrome" to reduce them to 7 out of 100. Plus, the way this is worded doesn't say that 120 million people commit acts of sexual intercourse, so people with particularly satisfying days increase the figure if they take breaks between to account for the refractory period. Guess it's not accurate.
Eh. I can't edit that post now.

President Theodore Roosevelt lied to the Japanese and the Russians to get them to the table to end the Russo-Japanese War in 1905.
Honey bees are not native to North America.
Chocolate milk doesn't come that way from the cow. It's added before it gets to you.

Re: Little know facts
I find that number credible. The notion that couples have sex nightly is a bit much. Even gay couples who may have sex more than straights (may not) would be similar. Saturday night is Saturday night.

Re: Little know facts
If 1.75 billion people is an accurate approximation of couples and we assume every week each couple has only one instance of sexual intercourse (in any way, mind you) the number is still as high as something between 14 and 15 times out of 100 days. How do we further reduce that? God, I feel like the Church.
Anyway, how does one go about replying to "forum comments received"? Should I just send private messages?

Re: Little know facts
The 3 Musketeers bar was originally split into three pieces with three different flavors: vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. When the other flavors became harder to come by during World War II, Mars decided to go all chocolate.
And once you go chocolate, you never go back.

My Turn LOL
When getting a new car, choose one that is silver. The color is most visible on the road and is least likely to get into an accident.
By law, a pregnant woman can pee anywhere she wants to in Britain, even if she chooses, in a police officer’s helmets.
