Knowledge Stuff you didn’t think you needed to know...and probably don’t. Nicotine was introduced by Jean Nicot (French ambassador to Portugal) in France in 1560. In 1954, boxers and wrestlers had to swear under oath they were not Communists before they could compete in the state of Indiana. Banks first used Scotch tape to mend torn currency during the Depression. John Hancock was the only one of fifty signatories of the Declaration of Independence who actually signed it in July. The first atomic bomb dropped on Japan fell from the Enola Gay, named after the unit commander’s mother. The second was dropped from a plane known as Bock’s Car. The Chinese ideogram for trouble depicts two women living under one roof. All office-seekers in the Roman Empire were obliged to wear a certain white toga for a period of one year before the election.
The world’s youngest parents were eight and nine and live in China in 1910. In ancient Rome, it was considered a sign of leadership to be born with a crooked nose. If a surgeon in ancient Egypt lost a patient while performing an operation, his hands were cut off. It takes a plastic container fifty thousand years to start decomposing. Rubber bands last longer when refrigerated. Mixing Sani-Flush and Comet cleaners has been known to cause explosions. The first U.S. coin to bear the words “United States of America” was a penny made in 1727. It was also inscribed with the plainspoken motto, “Mind your own business.” Tabasco sauce is made by fermenting vinegar and hot peppers in a French oak barrel that has three inches of salt on top and is aged for three years until all the salt is dessolved.
