Another Error...I see errors every few weeks.  Blake Segafredo - Jan 8, 2013 - Report this comment

I see so many errors its comical. I mean Wikipedia has better information then this app. No wonder they are killing iGoogle! The latest one was something about the origin of the word golf being an acronym for "gentlemen only, ladies forbidden"? A simple search proves this isn't true whatsoever. Useless Knowledge...more like Useless App!

Black Eye isn't bilateral  Tom Beam - Nov 14, 2012 - Report this comment

A black eye is a periorbital hematoma, not bilateral which means both sides. Bilateral periorbital hematomata are sometimes referred to as the raccoon sign. TB, M.D.

Queen Victoria was the initiator of the white wedding dress, not the wife of Napolean III who considered marrying one of Victoria's daughters before opting to marry for love instead of politics.

Look out -- don't sign a Change.org petition without reading the privacy policy!  Jenanne H. - Oct 27, 2012 - Report this comment

From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change.org: "Under certain conditions[22] signatures and other private information including email addresses and can be found by search engines. Change.org operates a system for signature hiding, which works only if the user has an account on Change.org, but[23] it does not work if the signature was forged or appears on another site operated by Change.org, PetitionOnline. That has drawn heavy criticism from (unintended) users, as in addition even multiple support requests on both the Change.org and PetitionOnline helpdesks are answered with great delay, if at all. Any support on PetitionOnline seems to have ended. "There has been debate and criticism[24][25]around the fact that Change.org is a for-profit business rather than an actual organization (expected users of '.org' domains). The site has been accused of fooling their users, advertising as an organization while hiding the fact that they are 'a for-profit entity that has an economic incentive to get people to sign petitions.' "Change.org is being deliberately deceitful through the use of the change.org name. I'd suspect that the average change.org user does not know that Change.org is a for-profit corporation, and that the corporation plans on using the contact information being provided to them to earn revenue." —Clay Johnson, [25] "Change.org has also been accused of selling the personal data provided by the users to third-party companies that hire their services, gaining money at the expense of the users.[25]"

Terminal Velocity  miles kauffman - Aug 8, 2012 - Report this comment

whether it is a cat or anything else, Terminal Velocity is the max speed that a mass can fall through the air. It is the speed at which speed acceleration "terminates". The object can go no faster. It is NOT, as you portrayed it, a set of brakes which slow the object down from some higher speed. Or stated another way, until an object reaches Terminal Velocity it is travelling slower than said speed and hence the cat has a better chance the entire time BEFORE it reaches TV. TV does not bring it BACK form some higher speed. I love your gadget but now that I know you don't give a damn what you post there I doubt I will enjoy it as much.

Crocodile eggs:  Dane Dawson - Jul 3, 2012 - Report this comment

You really should be more observant of what is posted; of course, it's obvious that the decimal point is not properly located. Eggs could not be incubated at over 800 degrees Fahrenheit, and the Celsius equivalent would be much higher than 350 (about 454 degrees C).

Magnum PL?! No, you should know that the initials refer to the words Private Investigator; it's Magnum PI!!!! You know, I almost remember his appearance on The Dating Game. Aah, I see, you took the capital 'I' as a lower case 'L', which you then capitalized. You need to do more complete research, old boy. (that's an endearing term, to a stranger, not a diminutive....) :->)

While I have found some of the information interesting, it would be much better if the sources of where this information was coming from was included with the information so people could do further research and learning on the various topics.
