Share your words of wisdom! You're statement doesn't have to be a proven true fact, but it should have a hint of truth :laugh:

For example (here's my "did you know" fact)

    The Earth's rotation was slightly changed by the earthquake in Chile(Feb 27, 2010) shortening the days. Also that a city was moved 10 feet, and that the rip in Earth's crust shifted the city of Concepción that much to the west.

    The earthquake was 8.8 =)
