The practice of naming hurricanes began early this century
when an Australian weather forecaster decided to insult
politicians he didn't like by naming devastating tropical
storms after them.

There is about one quarter-pound of salt in every gallon
of seawater.

The average pollen particle is less than the width of a
human hair. Pollens can remain on your skin and hair for
hours after spending time outdoors. Pollens can travel as
far as 400 miles and up to two miles high in the air.

A distillery was originally on the site of America's first
mint, the Philadelphia mint, which opened in 1792.

According to the Recruitment Code of the U.S. Navy, anyone "bearing an obscene and indecent" tattoo will be rejected.

The candies most likely to cause tooth decay are dark
chocolate and fudge.

Actor Jeremy Irons provides the voice of the narrator for
Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center in Orlando, Florida.
