Wow, sometimes the things you do NOT know surprise you, they sure surprise me :)
for example of the top of my head here is a list of stuff that I discovered recently...
- Brazil is bigger in size than India
Well, I knew Brazil was big, but I did not know it was as big as 8,514,877 sq. miles to India's 3,287,263 sq. miles! Its more than twice the size of India!
A lot of it is rain forest apparently
- Its a myth that Eskimos have a lot of words for 'snow'
I had always believed the popular 'did you know..." that Eskimos had hundreds of words for 'snow' but I read this somewhere while trawling the world wide web, (Unrelated trivia: If you notice, there are more syllables in WWW than in World Wide Web!)
ahem... his is all I could think of, off the top of my head, but I assure you the list shall increase
