The Hubble Constant (as of 8-16-2000) according to HST Key Project investigation:

74 (+/- 7) kilometers per second per megaparsec.


1 inch = 3 barleycorns, laid end to end
1 foot = the length of Charlemagne's foot
1 cubit = the distance from one's elbow to one's fingertips
1 fathom = the distance from fingertips to fingertips with arms outstretched

I think that you should have started your own "Did you know?" thread, Tilt.

Oh, there's more...

I'm sure you remember Colonel 'King' Kong from Dr. Strangelove. Here is the famous Survival Kit Monologue as recited by Slim Pickins (G-d rest his soul)...

"Survival Kit Contents check:

In them you will find:

One .45 caliber automatic,
Two boxes of ammunition,
Four days concentrated emergency rations,
One drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills,
One miniature combination Rooshan phrase book and Bible,
One hundred dollars in rubles,
One hundred dollars in gold,
Nine packs of chewing gum,
One issue of prophylactics,
Three lipsticks,
Three pair of nylon stockings

Shoot, a fellah could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff... "


Ya just can't beat trivia like that, <G>
