Fact one: My computer cannot run youtube worth anything.

Fact two: The liver, the largest organ in your body, provides over 30 functions. It can also regenerate from 80% of its original mass.

Fact three: The brain, despite all of its complexity, apparently only holds about 2.2 gigabytes of memory. Don't ask me how they proved this one, I don't know.

Fact four: If you were to take a person's blood vessels and lay them end to end, they'd circle the world twice. You'd also have a dead person.

Fact five: The human eyes recieve pictoral information UPSIDE DOWN. The brain flips the image, thus making sense of it.

That's all tonight.

The Earth is Round, I know this idea sounds completely insane, but trust me on this, I have done extensive research to prove this.

Yes, and it was first concretely proved in 2 ways:
First, the shadow cast on the moon during a lunar eclipse was one that only a spherical or geoid object could create.
Second, when a ship appears to view on a clear day, the mast is visible before the rest of the ship, indicating a curved surface.

Yeah, the funny thing is that I actually caught somebody else on that very point. My mistake (though if you want to get technical, skin is ON your body, not in it.)
Electrolysis, a chemical process that uses electricity to coat one metal in another, was found to be possible using ancient batteries discovered in Iraq.

The brown note is a supposed frequency that can... to put in a neat way, manipulate one's bowels. Apparently, it is so low that its vibrations trigger sphincters to release. It's only speculation, and has not been discovered.

But ..... but ...... didn't they find that in south park? blaugh
PostPosted: Sun Oct 07, 2007 6:42 pm


1. South park is a cartoon. Therefore, the majority of scientific discoveries within it can be assumed as fake.
2. It is statistically impossible to collect every single magic the gathering card in existence, due to the presences of uniques that specific people own.
3. Objects, when exposed to absolute zero (or, to be exact, temperatures that are extremely close to it), are almost instantly transformed into a state of solidness. While retaining form and color, if struck against any other object, the test body with shatter.

That is all for now.

Today, my focus on the scientific facts shall be.... birds. These are some random quickies, with just a bit if info on each.

1. The Seagull (Which is the state bird of Utah. Seriously.) has a red dot located on its beak that, when pecked, triggers a reflex for it to throw up. Basically, it yaks into the beaks of its young to feed them. Deeeee-licious.

2. The flamingo is known for its flamboyant pink color, but it is not born pink. In fact, flamingoes become pink due to a pigment gained by eating shellfish (shrimp, in particular). If a flamingo stops eating this shrimp, they turn white.

3. Penguins live at the south pole, right? Well, not the little blue penguin! This species, the smallest of the penguins, can live as north as southern California! In fact, only Emporer and Aidele penguins have permanent residence on Antarctica.

That skin is also a very good source of protein and calcium. I highly reccomend against eating it, however.
