    some parts of the universe are so far away from us and expanding away from us so fast, that the light emitted from them will never reach the Earth and will never be observable by humans.

    in other words, even though the part of the universe we can see is immensely big, the universe is bigger still and includes portions beyond our ability to ever see them.

    think about that the next time you gaze up at the night sky. :wink:

    I decided to change mine. It was too depressing.

    Here's one..

    The scene from Indiana Jones where he shoots the guy flailing the swords in the air wasn't in the script. Harrison Ford was tired so he playfully acted like he shot the bad guy. The bad guy went along with it and now it's a funny scene from the series.

    I thought this was more entertaining.

    Bulls are colorblind. They rush bullfighters because of the movement of the cape, not the color.

    The color red increases salivary output, which is why people are more attracted to those wearing the color red--you're basically drooling when you see them.

    Dueling is legal in Peru so long as both parties are blood donors.

    Flammable and inflammable mean the same thing.

    The opposite of flammable is actually nonflammable.

    Thaw and unthaw mean the same thing. Okay, personally, I wouldn't consider unthaw a real word, but people certainly use it!

    The poison of the platypus is a very similar protein destroying chemical that is the same one which a sperm uses to make its way through the outer wall of an egg during fertilization.

    Different nationalities set certain connotations to colors. In advertising in America and Canda, the color blue is seen as clean/fresh/more desirable. In most Asians countries, it is the opposite, with the color red being more desirable and blue being seen as a 'dirty' color.

    If someone says, "I wouldn't trade that for all the tea in China," They're not very smart. China produces about 855 million metric tons of tea a year (that's the trivia part). Worth about $1.25 trillion. I'd trade my wife and kids for that!
